Why do plant species need to promote cross-fertilization rather than self-fertilizationWhy do plant species need to promote cross-fertilization rather than self-fertilization?
Cross fertilization leads to genetic variability which helps in the process of better adaptability and evolution
What is the difference between self fertilization and cross fertilization?
welll because one is a producation but the other one isn't and the growth and how it grow at the botom of all top so it is werid Self-fertilization and cross-fertilization are the same as asexual and sexual reproduction. Self-fertilization uses itself to fertilize, which cross-fertilization takes from another plant to make a new generation of the plant.
What is the name of the transfer of pollen from the stamina to the pistil?
pollination; if it from the same plant (self-fertilization; self-pollination); pollen from one plant to the stigma of another plant (cross-pollination; cross-fertilization)
Why do plant species need to promote cross fertilization rather self fertilization?
Becuase when they self fertilize they cannot get the proper amount of sunlight, but when they dont self fertilize they can get the proper amount of sunlight
Why is the stigma a different height than the anthers?
The anthers and stigma occur at different heights to prevent self fertilization and to encourage cross fertilization.
What is the disadvantage of self-fertilization of flowers?
A limit to the possibilities for diversity is the disadvantage of self fertilization of flowers. Self fertilization draws upon the particular flower's gene base and nothing else or more. It's with other forms of fertilization such as cross and manual pollination whereby other characteristics such as color and disease resistance may be introduced.
Why is cross-pollination of plants better than self-fertilization?
I have heard they are more disease resistant but I can't say for certain.
What is fertilization of egg cells by pollen from a different plant?
Cross-Fertilization!
Fertilization of an egg cells by pollen from different plant?
Self-Pollinationits actually cross pollination
How would a plant reproduce by self fertilization?
well by pollens truth/ When both male & female gametes are compatible to mate, self-pollination results in self fertilization.
Varieties of plants in which self- fertilzation produces offspring that are identical to the parents. Are they referred to as hybrids?
Repeatedly Self-fertilized plants are homozygous that is why they are identical to the parents. They are not hybrids. Hybrids are essentially heterozygous due to cross fertilization.
What is this process in which the pollen from one plant is used to fertilize another?
cross fertilization
