The plants are able to produce genetically different offspring.
Explicación
## Step 1The question is asking for the benefit of sexual reproduction in plants. Sexual reproduction in plants involves the fusion of male and female gametes, leading to the production of offspring with genetic variation.## Step 2The options provided are:- The plants are able to divide into smaller plants- The plants are able to produce clones- The plants are able to produce genetically different offspring- The plants are able to be pioneer species## Step 3The first option, "The plants are able to divide into smaller plants", is not a benefit of sexual reproduction. This is a characteristic of asexual reproduction, not sexual reproduction.## Step 4The second option, "The plants are able to produce clones", is also not a benefit of sexual reproduction. Cloning is a form of asexual reproduction, where the offspring are genetically identical to the parent.## Step 5The third option, "The plants are able to produce genetically different offspring", is a benefit of sexual reproduction. This is because sexual reproduction involves the fusion of male and female gametes, leading to offspring with genetic variation.## Step 6The fourth option, "The plants are able to be pioneer species", is not a benefit of sexual reproduction. Pioneer species are those that are the first to colonize previously disrupted or damaged ecosystems, and this is not related to the mode of reproduction.
