How can polyploidy cause speciation in plants? Plants can sexually reproduce only when they are polyploid. Having the condition is normal in plants.
Plants can asexually reproduce or pollinate themselves. This allows polyploid individuals to reproduce.
Plants can repair polyploidy and obtain healthy cells. This allows plants to survive and reproduce.
Plants are not affected by polyploidy. Plants with the condition can reproduce normally.

Polyploidy is common among plants and has been a major source of speciation in the angiosperms. If through polyploidy the plant duplicates the chromosome set inherited from each parent meiosis can occur because each chromosome will have a homologue derived from its duplicate set.

Explanation:

answer: - few nutrients

high pressure

low temperatures

explanation: 1. few nutrients:   open-ocean zone is located way far from the land, which is the main source of the essential nutrients.2. high pressure: pressure increases by 1 atmosphere for every 10 meters increase in depth.3. ample sunlight: a large fraction of the sunlight is reflected back to the atmosphere from the sea surface. 4. varying salinity: below the thermocline, the water is isolated from the atmosphere so the salinity remains stable over the year.5. low temperatures:   the temperature of open-ocean zone ranges from a low of -2°c to an average of 17°c

1. a host loses nutrients to a parasite

2. a parasite only benefits when the host is alive (cause if the host dies the parasite dies with it )

3. producers to consumers

4. the tapeworm is a parasite

5. they convert energy from the sun (photosynthesis)

6. sunflower-robin (i think im 80% sure)

7. producer

8. consumer

9. prey

10. fresh water snails ( cause the green algea is the producer and the snails are the primary consumers and the small fish consumer so is the big fish)
