Why are the leaves on trees green but flowers do not have green petals?

Flower stems and leaves are green because they contain chloroplasts. Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll, and this is a green pigment. Chloroplasts are important because they are the site of photosynthesis - is the process by which a plant creates its own food (glucose) from solar energy, water, and carbon dioxide. Thus, the plant's synthesis of food is taking place in the stem and leaves, and these areas appear green in colour. The flowers are a bright array of colours to attract insects and birds that serve in pollinating the plant. Pollen is the plant's method of reproduction, so it is made up of the male gametes that carry plant genes. When insects and birds carry pollen from one plant to another, they carry a plant's genes to another plant and fertilize the plant, enabling it to produce fruit and genetically different offspring. Genetic diversity generally an advantage in the survival of the species.


Why do plants bear flowers and bear fruits at different times of the year?

The flowers attract pollinators (e.g. bees, hummingbirds). Only after a pollinator has fertilized the female ovary will seeds begin developing, the flower drops off, and the ovary transforms into fruit.


Why does photosynthesis not take place in the parts of leaves that are white?

The green areas of a leaf contain the type of chlorophyll that is responsible for the process of photosynthesis and which is colored green. It is absent from some areas and those leaf parts are therefore not green and photosynthesis cannot occur there.


Why both the epidermis are covered by thick cuticle in nerium leaf?

A cuticle is a protective film covering the epidermis of the leaves. Both the upper and lower epidermis are protected by this cuticle in many leaves, but leaves growing in dry areas have much thicker cuticles, serving as a structural support as well as protection.


How do roots increase the absorption of substances transported by phloem?

Osmotic gradients. Water passively travels from more concentrated areas to less concentrated areas, no energy required.

Is strawberry dies in winter in Boston MA?

Strawberries go dormant in the winter in New England (which includes Boston). The leaves turn brown and die, but the plant sends out new leaves from the roots in the spring. Strawberries can live for several years in northern areas, but many will produce less fruit as they get older. In coastal areas with heavy snowfall, even the leaves may stay green over the winter, although no flowers are produced until the weather warms up.
