Question

Your teacher has decided that your class will grow and care for a common houseplant in your classroom. The plant requires 7 hours of sunlight, as well as water two days a week. The plant will produce flowers when it is healthy. Most species bloom into three different flowers. You class goes on winter break, and in the rush of cleaning up the classroom after a movie party, your teacher forgets to assign the plant to someone to take home over break. During the two weeks your class is gone, the plant will receive no light or water. Explain how these two weeks will influence both the environmental and genetic factors of this plant.

Answer 1

Answer:

Growth. A vascular plant begins from a single celled zygote, formed by fertilisation of an egg cell by a sperm cell. From that point, it begins to divide to form a plant embryo through the process of embryogenesis. ... In seed plants, the embryo will develop one or more "seed leaves" (cotyledons).
