Apomictic plants can reproduce asexually without fertilization, producing seeds that are genetically identical to the parent.

Phenotype refers to the observable characteristics or traits of an organism.

The term for an observable characteristic influenced by both genetic and environmental factors is phenotype.

Alleles are different forms of a gene that can exist at a specific locus on a chromosome.

Apomicts are plants that can produce seeds without fertilization, resulting in offspring that are genetically identical to the parent.

Systole is the contraction phase of the heart cycle, during which the heart pumps blood.

Neurulation is the process during embryonic development that leads to the formation of the nervous system.

Natural selection is the evolutionary process by which species adapt to their environment, favoring traits that enhance survival and reproduction.

Convergent evolution occurs when unrelated species evolve similar traits due to similar environmental pressures.

Divergent evolution refers to the process where a single ancestral species diversifies into multiple forms to adapt to different environments.

Internal respiration refers to the exchange of gases between the blood and the tissues of the body.

The zygote is the initial cell formed when a sperm fertilizes an egg.

Genotype refers to the genetic makeup of an individual, while phenotype refers to the observable traits.

Phototropism is the growth response of a plant to light, typically resulting in bending towards the light source.

Gravitropism is the growth response of plants to the direction of gravity.

Translocation refers to the movement of water and nutrients through the plant, specifically from roots to leaves.

Phenotype refers to the observable characteristics of an organism, which are influenced by its genotype and environment.

Phenotype refers to the observable traits of an organism, influenced by both genetic and environmental factors.

Phenotype refers to the observable traits of an organism, influenced by both genetics and environmental factors.

The phenotype is the set of observable characteristics of an organism, influenced by both genetic and environmental factors.

Germination is the process where a seed absorbs water and begins to grow into a new plant.

Germination is the process by which a seed develops into a new plant.

Fertilization is the process where a sperm cell merges with an egg cell to form a zygote.

Fertilization is the process where a sperm cell fuses with an egg cell to form a zygote.

Fertilization is the process where a sperm cell successfully merges with an egg cell.

Natural selection is the process by which organisms that are better adapted to their environment tend to survive and reproduce.

Evolution is the process through which species undergo changes over time due to adaptations to their environment.

Transpiration is the process of water vapor loss from plant leaves through stomata.

Transpiration is the process of water vapor loss from plant surfaces, primarily through stomata.

Transpiration is the process of water vapor loss from plant surfaces, mainly through stomata.
