A gardener crosses two plants and observes that the offspring appear different from the parents. The diagram shows the plants.
parents
offspring
Which statement supports this observation?
O The plants reproduce asexually, and the offspring develop new genes with age.
O The plants reproduce sexually, and the offspring exchange genes with each other.
O The plants reproduce asexually, and the offspring receive all their genes from a single parent
O The plants reproduce sexually, and the offspring receive a unique combination of genes from both parents.
MAKE CONNECTIONS In seed plants, how might retaining the gametophyte within the sporophyteaffect embryo fitness? (See Concepts 17.5, 23.1, and 23.4 to review mutagens, mutations, and fitness.)
