A plant biologist discovers a new species of plant in the ashes of a recent forest fire along the sides of a steep mountain range. It is fall, and temperatures are dropping below freezing. The biologist cannot stay in the field to observe the plant. What can he infer about the plant’s reproductive strategy, based on his recent observations?

Based on the observations, the plant likely reproduces by dropping a pod of some sort (such as a cone) and the heat of the fire allows the pod to open up and drop the seeds. This is called pyrophytic reproduction.

Explanation:

characterization of nanoparticles is a critical step in nanomaterial production as it provides information of dimension, morphology, surface charge, distribution and degree of surface functionalization.
