suggest 2 features of ripe bananas that attract animal
Answers
Answer:
The banana flowers produce copious nectar that attracts a range of animals. Even after blooming, nectar is produced and can be literally seen dripping off the flowers, even up to a few days
Because of this nectar the entire inflorescence has become a unique ecosystem supporting various organisms, most prominent of which are birds like the Spectacled Spiderhunter (Arachnothera flavigaster) that feed on the nectarAgain, seldom seen are the nocturnal Spotted House Geckos (Gekko monarchs) that reside among the flowers, also to feed on the nectar as well as the resident ants (above, below).
Both the bat and the lizard are sensitive to each other’s presence, the former flying off and the latter scurrying between the flowers should either be caught unaware.
