Question

what process follows pollination to begin seed development in reproductive growth?
○ a fertilization
○ b photosynthesis
○ c respiration
○ d transpiration

question 2 (1 point)
which structure forms as a result of successful fertilization during reproductive growth?
○ a leaves
○ b roots
○ c seeds
○ d stems

question 3 (1 point)
which condition is not typically required for the transition to reproductive growth?
○ a daily fertilizer application
○ b plant maturity (age/size)
○ c sufficient light exposure
○ d adequate leaf area

Explanation:

Question 1

Pollination is the transfer of pollen. After pollination, fertilization (fusion of gametes) occurs to start seed development. Photosynthesis is for energy, respiration for energy release, transpiration for water movement—none relate to seed development after pollination.

Fertilization in plants leads to the formation of seeds (containing embryo). Leaves, roots, stems are vegetative structures, not formed by fertilization during reproductive growth.

Reproductive growth needs plant maturity, light, leaf area. Daily fertilizer application is not typical—plants can reproduce with natural nutrients; over - fertilizing daily isn't required.

Answer:

a. Fertilization
