Q. Plants that show co-evolution and co-extinction are usually pollinated by-
a) Insect b) water C) Air d) Animals
Answers
Explanation:
The coevolution of flowering plants and their animal pollinators presents one of nature's most striking examples of adaption and specialization. It also demonstrates how the interaction between two groups of organisms can be a font of biological diversity.
Flowering plants are adapting to their pollinators, which are in turn adapting to the plants. Each of the participating organisms thus presents an evolutionary "moving target". The relationship between these distantly related taxa is symbiotic in the broad sense that characterizes life and that gives rise to the high degree of complexity and diversity that we perceive in nature.
If the rule in nature is "whatever works," our observations are that many things work, and that what works keeps changing. Our understanding is that each species evolves to its own benefit; in coevolution, these two self-interests collide, and remarkable things happen.
Answer:
Option A
Explanation:
Insects form a broad guild of pollinators which respond to the nectar or pollen produced by flowers
