plants do not have a germ line and gametes are derived from cell lines that are also responsible for the growth of the organism. can the disposable soma hypothesis be applied to plants? group of answer choices yes; trade-offs between reproduction and repair are still possible. yes; plants have a much higher physiological tolerance for the effects of mutations. no; the distinction between somatic cells and germ line is at the heart of the hypothesis. no; plants do not produce eggs or sperm but rather gametophytes that represent an additional generation.

Answer :

Yes, there can still be trade-offs between repair and replication. when survival rises, fertility falls, and vice versa.

The two most fundamental aspects of fitness—survival and reproduction—are what determine how a life cycle evolves. There is typically a trade-off between them: when survival rises, fertility falls, and vice versa. Trade-offs happen when organisms forgo a fitness benefit, like higher chances of survival later in life, in exchange for a fitness cost, like postponing sexual development. When alleles at a locus affect both attributes involved in a trade-off, a genetic connection is produced (Roff 2002). Another trade-off is the initial reproduction's timing. While later reproduction may enable organisms to produce more often or better offspring or to offer greater care, early reproduction minimizes the risk of dying without progeny.
