The seeds of orchids are among the smallest known, with virtually no endosperm and with miniscule seed leaves. Consequently, what should one expect to be true of such seeds?
1. They require extensive periods of dormancy during which the embryo develops
2. They are surrounded by brightly colored, sweet fruit
3. They germinate very soon after being released from the ovary
4.  The developing embryo within is dependent upon the gametophyte for nutrition

Recent research has shown that pollination requires that carpels recognize pollen grains as "self or nonself." For self-incompatibility, the system requires
1. the rejection of nonself cells
2. the rejection of self cells.
3. carpel incompatibility with the egg cells.
4. that the flowers be incomplete.
