Question

_____ provides nursery for moths.

(b) Oxalis

(c) Hibiscus

(d) Viola

I got this question during an interview for a job.

My question comes from Flowering Plants Reproduction topic in division Sexual Reproduction in Flowering Plants of Biology – Class 12

Answer 1

Correct choice is (a) Yucca

Explanation: A similar relationship exists between a species of moth and the plant Yucca where both species–moth and the plant–cannot complete their life cycles without each other. The moth deposits its eggs in the locule of the ovary and the flower, in turn, gets pollinated by the moth. The larvae of the moth come out of the eggs as the seeds start developing.
