Explain the reproductive advantage that an angiosperm (like apple trees) would have over mosses.

The correct answer would be -  angiosperm produce seed whereas mosses reproduce through spores.

Explanation:

Angiosperm produces seeds that help in providing nutrients and protection by endosperm whereas in mosses or other gymnosperms reproduce through spores which lack any of these inbuilt structures that could help.

Seed help to provide outer protection as they contain shells that protect the inner parts from damage. Angiosperm did not need any type of assistance to spread their pollen such as water or wind, they need a pollinator. Mosses rely on mediums like water for their dispersal and attracting the flowers.

Thus, the correct answer is - angiosperm produce seed whereas mosses reproduce through spores.

in protein sysnthesis, DNA is needed but not the replication of it. The DNA is used as a template for the mRNA (which will leave the nucleus and code for the protines). DNA replication is needed to conserve the genes but it isn't necessarily needed in protien synthesis

if this didn't make sense then i can elaborate on it :)
