Plants produce many seeds. But many of them are destroyed or ea
up. Suppose all seeds grew up into adult plants. What problems
this lead to?
Answers
Explanation:
Important structures in plant development are buds, shoots, roots, leaves, and flowers; plants produce these tissues and structures throughout their life from meristems[1] located at the tips of organs, or between mature tissues. Thus, a living plant always has embryonic tissues. By contrast, an animal embryo will very early produce all of the body parts that it will ever have in its life. When the animal is born (or hatches from its egg), it has all its body parts and from that point will only grow larger and more mature.
According to plant physiologist A. Carl Leopold, the properties of organization seen in a plant are emergent properties which are more than the sum of the individual parts. "The assembly of these tissues and functions into an integrated multicellular organism yields not only the characteristics of the separate parts and processes but also quite a new set of characteristics which would not have been predictable[by whom?] on the basis of examination of the separate parts."[2]
Answer:
competition for food, shelter and resources.
Explanation:
After fertilization in flowers ovary develop into fruit and ovules develop into seeds. The seeds bear the developing embryo for the next generation. Thus many seeds are developed but the resources needed are little, so those seeds that are fully nurtured remains and the others are aborted. This allow the luxuriant growth of healthy seeds., eliminating the competition for resources.
