Conexus Unit 4 Lesson 4 Quick check I got a 75 by searching the individual questions and getting answers so i make these so they are in one place
Flies are scavengers and tend to break down dead organisms. Based on this information, what is a plant characteristic that would best attract flies?
flowers that emit a sweet odor
flowers that are light colored
flowers that emit a rotten odor *****
flowers that are brightly colored
Which of the following describes fertilization?
the changes that occur in organisms over time
when a sperm cell and egg cell come together ******
when an animal is attracted to a flower
the process of pollen moving from place to place
Specialization can be both limiting and beneficial. How would a plant species benefit from a pollinator that only visits the flowers of that plant species?
less competition for pollinators with other species*******
the flowers always having a pollinator
decreased self-fertilization, allowing for greater genetic variation
less competition for pollinators within the species
Sometimes, plants will reward their pollinators with something that benefits them. What is an example of a plant attractant that is also a pollination reward?
vibrant colors
nectar *******
pollen
sweet odors
hope this helps
To find the answers to these questions, you can follow these steps:
1. Read the question and understand what it is asking for.
2. Look for keywords in the question that can help you identify the relevant information.
3. Read the provided options carefully and consider each option's relationship to the question.
4. Eliminate options that are clearly incorrect or do not match the question's requirements.
5. Narrow down your choices by considering the remaining options and select the one that best matches the question's requirements.
Now, let's go through the questions and answers to find the correct choices:
1. Flies are scavengers and tend to break down dead organisms. Based on this information, what is a plant characteristic that would best attract flies?
In this question, the plant characteristic that would best attract flies is one that emits a rotten odor.
Therefore, the correct answer is: flowers that emit a rotten odor.
2. Which of the following describes fertilization?
In this question, fertilization is described as when a sperm cell and egg cell come together.
Therefore, the correct answer is: when a sperm cell and egg cell come together.
3. Specialization can be both limiting and beneficial. How would a plant species benefit from a pollinator that only visits the flowers of that plant species?
In this question, a plant species would benefit from a pollinator that only visits its flowers because it would result in less competition for pollinators with other species.
Therefore, the correct answer is: less competition for pollinators with other species.
4. Sometimes, plants will reward their pollinators with something that benefits them. What is an example of a plant attractant that is also a pollination reward?
In this question, an example of a plant attractant that is also a pollination reward is nectar.
Therefore, the correct answer is: nectar.
You have correctly identified the answers to the questions:
- Flowers that emit a rotten odor.
- When a sperm cell and egg cell come together.
- Less competition for pollinators with other species.
- Nectar.
Well done!
