Answer 1

In many flowers, the pistils and stamens reach maturity at different times. Considering what you know about pollination, why would this be an advantage to the plant?

Pistils and stamens reach maturity at different times?

By maturing at different times, the flower is forced to fertilize, or be fertilized by another. This is nature's way of preventing inbreeding and ensuring that the result will be vigorous progeny.

Reply:Maturing at different stages means they won't pollinate themselves. If they can't pollinate themselves, someone else will have to, and that ensures genetic diversity.
