b) Complete flower and Incomplete flower
c) Gamete and Zygote
Answers
Answer:
good morning......... .. ................
a) Sexual Reproduction:
1. It occurs almost in all types of animals and mostly in higher plants.
2. It is bi-parental.
3. Gametes are always formed.
4. Fertilization takes place.
Asexual Reproduction:
1. It occurs in lower invertebrates and lowers chordates and plants with simple organisations.
2. It is always uni-parental.
3. Gametes are not formed.
4. No fertilization or fusion of gametes occurs
b)Complete flowers contain four flower parts: petals, sepals, stamen, and pistil. Incomplete flowers are missing one or more of these four parts. It is possible for a perfect flower to be incomplete, but it is not possible for an imperfect flower to be complete.
c)Gametes are unfertilized reproductive cells. Zygote is fertilized egg or fertilized Ovum. 3. Since zygote is product of fusion of haploid male and female gamete, it is a diploid structure
