Use the information below to answer questions 3 through 5. Spinach plants are dioecious (/diéSHos/), meaning that there are both male and female spinach plants. While the female plants are the only type to produce seeds, both plants flower. In the case of spinach, a bee would pick up pollen from the male plant and transfer it to the female plant for fertilization to occur (see Figure 2). FEMALE BEANT 3. This is an example of Figure 2. Reproduction in spinach plants Cross-pollination pollen grains Jul MALE PLANT 1. Pollen from stamens sticks to a be as it visits a flower to collect food 2006 Entkopedia Britannics ht reproduction. The offspring plants have pollen 2. The bee travels to another plant of the same type 3. Pollen on the bee sticks to a pistil of a flower on the other plant The genetic makeup of the offspring plants is [ 4. A female spinach plant with flat (Ff) leaves is crossed with (pollination and fertilization occur) a male spinach plant that also has flat leaves (Ff) leaves. Use a model to show how genetic information about the leaf trait is passed from the parent spinach plants to their potential offspring.
