Answer 1

1. When an ant goes through the stages of metamorphosis, the pupa changes into an adult ant.
2. When looking at the life cycle of a polar bear, the stage of a cub is most comparable to the larval stage of an ant.
3. Tomato plants also go through a life cycle. When the plant is growing, but not producing flowers, the plant is a vegetative plant. When the plant is producing flowers and fruit, it is now a reproductive plant.
4. If a plant has a pumpkin growing on it, and it is filled with seeds, the pumpkin plant is considered a fruit. True or False? True
5. A chrysalis is part of the pupal stage of a butterfly's life cycle.
6. How is the life cycle of a tree different from the life cycle of a butterfly?
   The life cycle of a tree involves stages such as germination, growth, maturity, and reproduction through seeds, while the life cycle of a butterfly includes stages of egg, larva (caterpillar), pupa (chrysalis), and adult, which is characterized by a metamorphosis process.
7. Plants need space to grow. How will little space affect the way a plant grows?
   Little space may restrict a plant’s root development and access to nutrients, leading to stunted growth, competition for resources, and possibly lower overall health of the plant.
8. If a plant is growing beneath green trees, the plant will tend to grow more slowly due to less sunlight.
9. All plants need sunlight, air, space to grow, and water. What do some indoor plants typically receive the least amount of?
   Some indoor plants typically receive the least amount of sunlight.
