Answer 1
Answer: The option that best explains why ecosystems need a continual influx of new energy is C. energy flows through an ecosystem and cannot be recycled. Given that it cannot be recycled, and it comes and goes, ecosystems need new energy to replace the old one they may have lost over time.

C) The offspring receives half the genetic information of its parent plant.
D) The offspring receives one fourth of the genetic information of its parent plant.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer would be B) The offspring receives equal genetic information from its parent plant.

Asexual reproduction is a type of reproduction in which daughter cells or offspring are produced from a single parent.

Due to identical genetic content, the offspring are also termed as clones.

The correct answer is B since the organism is just copying itself.
