Critics of GM foods have argued that transgenes may disturb cellular functioning, causing unexpected and potentially harmful substances to appear inside cells. Toxic intermediary substances that normally occur in very small amounts may arise in larger amounts, or new substances may appear. The disruption may also lead to the loss of substances that help maintain normal metabolism. If you were your nation鈥檚 chief scientific advisor, how would you respond to these criticisms?
(a) Which Mimulus species would you categorize as mainly asexual reproducers? Why? (b) Which species would you categorize as mainly sexual reproducers? Why?
With respect to sexual reproduction, some plant species are fully self-fertile, others are fully self-incompatible, and some exhibit a 鈥渕ixed strategy鈥 with partial self-incompatibility. These reproductive strategies differ in their implications for evolutionary potential. How, for example, might a self-incompatible species fare as a small founder population or remnant population in a severe population bottleneck (see Concept 23.3), as compared with a self-fertile species?
A fruit is
(A) a mature ovary.
(B) a mature ovule.
(C) a seed plus its integuments.
(D) an enlarged embryo sac.
(a) Which species would probably fare better in response to a pathogen that infects all Mimulus species? (b) Which species would fare better if a pathogen caused hummingbird populations to dwindle?
