The earliest animal-pollinated flowers were shallow, cup-shaped blooms pollinated by insects such as beetles, so the syndrome of insect pollination was well established before the first appearance of bees. Los primeros polinizadores no fueron abejas sino escarabajos y/o moscas, es decir que el...

Corn - Food, Fuel, Animal Feed: Corn is one of the world's most dominant crops. It is grown extensively as food for humans and livestock and to produce the biofuel ethanol. Many parts of the plant, including the stalks, husks, and cobs, are used for indu

Is it any wonder that humans have dedicated so much time to the husbandry and breeding of bees? The sunshine taste of honey and the contributions of these workers in the garden are nothing to sneeze at. More than80% of agricultural cropsin the world are pollinated by honey bees. ...

Yes. Our environment has been affected by the absence of certain animals. Certain flowers are pollinated by butterflies, which migrate from Canada to Mexico. Some of the breeding grounds of these butterflies were destroyed. Now these flowers are disappearing from certain areas. We will no longer...

unpredictable, and regularly disturbed ground where survivors often end up isolated from each other. Selfing is also cheaper than outcrossing, because selfers can become pollinated without assistance from animals and therefore need not produce large, attractive flowers with abundant nectar and pollen ...
