Which of the following organic chemistry reactions is most commonly associated with the process of cross-pollination in plants, enhancing their adaptability and survival?
A
Fermentation
B
Glycolysis
C
Photosynthesis
D
Genetic recombination
Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the concept of cross-pollination: Cross-pollination is a process where pollen from one plant fertilizes the ovules of another plant, leading to genetic diversity.
Recognize the role of genetic recombination: Genetic recombination is a process that occurs during sexual reproduction, where genetic material is exchanged between different organisms, leading to new combinations of genes.
Identify the connection between genetic recombination and cross-pollination: In plants, cross-pollination facilitates genetic recombination by mixing genetic material from different plants, enhancing adaptability and survival.
Differentiate between the given options: Fermentation, glycolysis, and photosynthesis are metabolic processes that do not directly involve genetic recombination or cross-pollination.
Conclude that genetic recombination is the process most commonly associated with cross-pollination in plants, as it directly contributes to genetic diversity and adaptability.
