Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This intriguing book explores the fascinating origins of floral structures through the lens of insect and other environmental influences. The author challenges the long-held belief that natural selection is the sole driving force behind the evolution of plant species. Instead, the book proposes that the environment plays a significant role in shaping the development of flowers. The author draws upon principles of number, arrangement, cohesion, adhesion, and form to illustrate how external factors influence the diversity of floral structures we see in the natural world. By examining oral mechanisms used for fertilization, the book uncovers the remarkable adaptations that have evolved over time to ensure plant survival. Ultimately, this book provides a comprehensive understanding of the intricate relationship between plants and their surroundings, highlighting the profound impact that external stimuli have had on the evolution of the plant kingdom. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
