MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION
5 mins • 1 pt
Rafflesia plants are found in rain forests in Southeast Asia. Rafflesia flowers look like rotting meat, since they are red with white dots or stripes. Rafflesia flowers also give off a terrible smell like that of dead animals. This is why rafflesia are also called "corpse flowers." A rafflesia flower is shown in Picture 1.
Rafflesia plants do not have leaves, roots, or stalks. Rafflesia plants do not use the Sun to make energy. Instead, rafflesia plants live inside a vine plant named Tetrastigma and get energy and matter from this plant.
A rafflesia plant can be seen only when it blooms. The rafflesia bud pushes through the side of the vine. The bud then develops into the world's largest flower, almost one meter across. The flower's terrible smell attracts pollinators that usually eat rotting meat. After the rafflesia flower is pollinated, it makes berries with tiny seeds. The berries are eaten by small mammals.
Some scientists want to know more about how rafflesia plants affect Tetrastigma vines. Which question should the scientists test?
How does the habitat of the rafflesia plant affect the rate of Tetrastigma growth?
How does the size of the rafflesia plant affect the amount of air available for Tetrastigma growth?
How does the color of the rafflesia plant affect the amount of soil the Tetrastigma can use for its growth?
How does the presence of the rafflesia plant affect the amount of water the Tetrastigma can use for its growth?
