A flower has large petals, strong colour and a noticeable scent. What is the most likely reason for that combination?

  1. They protect the developing seeds from rain
  2. They catch pollen that is blowing past on the wind
  3. They shade the ovary from the sun
  4. They attract insects to visit the flowerRespuesta correcta

Explicación

Size, colour and scent are all signals aimed at animals that can carry pollen from one flower to the next, which is why such flowers stand out at a distance and smell strongly close up. Protection is a real job in a flower, but it belongs to the small green parts outside the petals that wrap the bud before it opens.
