Asexual Reproduction: Evolution

It is the spring season and flowers are blooming. When flowers bloom they release pollen into the air to create more flowers! Pollen is essentially the sperm of the flower and as it travels through the air it will eventually reach another flower on the ovary to fertilize a new flower. Flowers are evolutionary because they create more flowers asexually. This means that they do not actually have physical intercourse to reproduce but instead they put out their sperm into the air to create offspring. Asexual reproduction is evolutionary because it allows organisms to reproduce independently.

  1. +3 pts - nice picture, however you are explaining asexual reproduction but are not explaining how this picture represents asexual reproduction. Your connection to evolution is not complete either. You are just restating what asexual reproduction is.
