How does the asexual reproduction of a lily differ from sexual reproduction? all but one statement describes a difference between asexual and sexual reproduction of this lily, namely:
a) asexual reproduction only requires one plant.
b) asexual reproduction requires only that one flower be present.
c) sexual reproduction requires both male and female flower parts.
d) sexual reproduction requires an egg and pollen containing sperm.

B) Asexual reproduction requires only that one flower be present.  

 Lily plants exhibit both asexual and sexual modes of reproductions. Asexual reproduction is the mode of reproduction which requires a single parent to produce numerous offsprings. In lilies vegetative propagation is the asexual mode of reproduction in which bulbs, scales are used to produce new plants. The lily plants can also be grown by tissue culture. In lily plants the asexual reproduction requires only one flowering plant. Sexual reproduction also takes place in these plants but male and female parts are present in different flowering plants. Lily plants are diocious.

explanation:

"1. it should be, it has been for about 20 years, and it's really not much different in the end than breeding animals to have particular traits. there are always concerns about genetically engineered animals/plants affecting the environment in unexpected negative ways, but i can't think of an example where the fears didn't turn out to be baseless.  

first, as you point out, it would be a great advance in pharmacology, to be able to tailor drugs and their doses to me. the pros involve better medical treatment. the cons involve privacy issues like insurance companies denying coverage to people with genetic risk factors. looking at dna markers wouldn't affect the frequency of genetic diseases, but it would allow detection of them earlier. and ok, actually i suppose that if people used this information to avoid having children with genetic diseases, some might decrease in frequency."
