Seeds provide the offspring of a plant with a mechanism which prevents dessication of the embryo, protection from predators and a method of dispersal (think of winged seeds etc.)

A cross between two pea plants that produce yellow seeds results in 124 offspring 93 produce yellow seeds and 31 produce green seeds what are the likely genotypes of the plants that were crossed?

Can marijuana seeds produce multiple plants from one seed?
No, male marijuana plants do not have seeds. They can only provide pollen to the female plants who in turn can produce seeds. These seeds can both grow into male or female plants.
How was it possible that there were short plants in the f2 generation if there werent any short plants in the f1 generation?
The reason why short plants reappeared in Mendel's F2 generation of pea plants was because their short trait was heterozygous. Both parents carriedÊthat recessive gene, so they passed it on to their offspring.

What should be regarded as the most single most significant structure leading to rapid success of the so-called higher plants?
Seeds. Simple. Before seeds, plants needed water to reproduce. Seed plants can inhabit a greater diversity of habitats than non-seed plants (ie mosses, ferns, etc) because they to not need water to reproduce. In addition, seeds can lay dormant for long periods of time. This allows individuals to wait for the right conditions to sprout (decreases mortality). Finally, seeds offer a better way to disperse offspring. Seeds can be dispersed great distances by animals, wind, water, etc. This is not possible with seedless plants.
What are the needs of plants that animals can provide?
Spreading the seeds for the next generation of plants.

Why do flowering plants disperse their seeds?
The parent plants want the seeds to go away from the parent plants so that their genes don't compete. That is why they will blow around or catch on a animals coat.
What happens if no fertilization occur?
In plants - no seeds, no fruit. In most animals - no baby. In some insects - male offspring. When these insects' eggs ARE fertilized you get female offspring!
Can marijuana seeds produce multiple plants from one seed?
No, male marijuana plants do not have seeds. They can only provide pollen to the female plants who in turn can produce seeds. These seeds can both grow into male or female plants.
What role do plants have in spreading seeds?
Plants provide the pollen that attracts insects. These insects move from plant to plant dropping seeds, which helps flowers grow everywhere.

Why are seeds an important structure adaptation?
The development of seeds allowed plants to spread widely and colonize the land. Seeds could be carried in animals' intestines or blown by the wind to create offspring far from the original plant.
What is the probability that a cross between a hybrid pea plant with round seeds and one with wrinkled seeds will produce offspring with wrinkled seeds?
The probability that an offspring will have wrinkled seeds is 2 in 4 or 50%
How can animal help plants?
They breath out carbondioxide which is good for plant's growing process
What percentage of the offspring will have round seeds?
9082
