What advantages do flowering plants have over non-flowering plants?
Wiki User
∙ 11y ago
The flowering plants use pollinator animals (i.e. bees, hummingbirds, butterflies) to carry their genes to a different flower. This form of sexual reproduction ensures that the flowering plants get different gene alleles to use in their production of offspring.
Edited answer:
1. Flowering plants produce seeds inside fruits. The fruit not only provide protection to the developing seed, it also lures the animals for dispersal of seeds.
2. Cross pollination provides an opportunity to have broad gene base for a species to adapt better in the ever changing environment.
3. The seeds can very easily overcome adverse climatic conditions and ensure better continuity of them generation after generation.

What is two reason number of insects species may have increased when flowering plants appeared?
With more chances to eat, insects can reproduce more. Another reasons flowering plants helped increased the number of insects is with flowering plants around, insects can remain in an safer environment than if they were in the woods. With a safe environment, less insects are killed by predators, causing their population to increase over time.
