20. In this picture is a type of fungus. Fungus is a type of plant that is reproduced through spores and feed on organic material. Mushrooms, yeast, and smuts are examples of fungi.
22. These two dogs give an example of genetic variation. Genetic variation is where offspring differ in appearance from the parents. These two dogs come from the same parent, but they differ in appearance from each other and their parents.
24. This pine cone is an example of a gymnosperm cone. A gymnosperm cone is a cone where its seeds are not enclosed. This spikes protruding from this pine cone is actually seeds, and since the seeds are on the outside, this pine cone is considered a gymnosperm cone.
27. The fungus on the tree is an example of a lichen. A lichen is a type of fungus that grows on tree trunks or rocks. This picture is an example of a lichen because it is a fungus and it is a growth on the tree trunk.
