Questions and Answers

Name two features visible in the image of Rose sweet pea that indicate the flower is cross-pollinated.

Two features visible in the image of Rose sweet pea that indicate the flower is cross-pollinated are the presence of multiple stamens and a well-developed stigma.

What is meant by cross-pollination? List two other agents of pollination.

Cross-pollination refers to the transfer of pollen from the anther of one flower to the stigma of another flower. Two other agents of pollination are wind and insects.

Explain self-pollination.

Self-pollination refers to the transfer of pollen from the anther to the stigma within the same flower or within flowers of the same plant.

Study Notes

Cross-Pollination

  • Features:
    • Different flower structures: The image shows the stigma and style are positioned above the anther.
    • Brightly colored petals: Bright colors and pleasant scents can attract pollinators to the flowers.
  • Definition: Cross-pollination involves the transfer of pollen from the anther of one flower to the stigma of another flower of the same species.
  • Agents:
    • Insects (like bees and butterflies)
    • Wind

Self-Pollination

  • Definition: Self-pollination occurs when pollen from the anther of a flower is transferred to the stigma of the same flower or another flower on the same plant.

Chromosome Parts

  • Centromere: Constricted region of the chromosome where the sister chromatids attach.
  • Chromatids: Two identical copies of a chromosome joined at the centromere, formed during DNA replication.
  • Telomeres: Protective caps at the ends of chromosomes that prevent degradation of DNA.
  • Genes: Functional units of heredity located on chromosomes.

Mitosis vs. Meiosis

  • Mitosis:
    • Purpose: Growth, repair, and asexual reproduction.
    • Daughter cells: Two daughter cells genetically identical to the parent cell.
    • Chromosomes: Number of chromosomes remains the same.
  • Meiosis:
    • Purpose: Sexual reproduction.
    • Daughter cells: Four daughter cells with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
    • Chromosomes: Number of chromosomes is halved.
    • Genetic diversity: Generates genetic variation through crossing over and independent assortment.

Match the Following Tasks

  • Matching tasks with descriptions: This task requires you to identify the appropriate description for a given task.
  • Matching biological concepts with definitions: You need to connect the definitions of specific biological concepts correctly.
  • Matching terms with biological processes: Matching specific terms to the processes they are related to.
  • Matching flower characteristics with pollination types: Identifying the pollination type associated with specific flower characteristics.
  • Matching tasks with subject areas: This involves classifying tasks based on their corresponding subject areas of study.
