suppose a species od flowering plant produces primarily blue flowers but also some very pale blue (almost white) flowers the blue color attracts pollinators but the white color does not herbivores feed on this plant and locate it by its blue flower color the white flower color makes the plant less visible to the herbivores what are you likely to observe about this species over time?--------- A.Species will not change under two opposing evnviornmental pressures. . B.Species will produce primarily small, white flowers capable of self-pollination******? . C.Species will produce only blue flowers to ensure pollination . D.Species will not produce red flowers that will confuse the herbivores
What does this plant need to do to be sure that it produces more plants like it? What does it have to do as a species to survive?
Yay! You're right. :-)
You're welcome.
I disagree.
No. I think you're guessing.
sorry i don't get it
oh i see, so its C
haha thank you Ms.Sue
Based on the information provided, we can make an educated guess about what may happen to this species of flowering plant over time.
In this scenario, the blue flower color attracts pollinators, while the white flower color makes the plant less visible to herbivores. Given these opposing environmental pressures, it is likely that over time, the species will evolve to produce primarily small, white flowers capable of self-pollination. This adaptation would allow the plant to continue reproducing even if pollinators are not present.
Therefore, the most likely answer to the question is B. "Species will produce primarily small, white flowers capable of self-pollination." This is because this adaptation would provide the plant with a better chance of survival and reproduction in its specific ecological context.
