The basics would be that you'd need to find out if they could exchange genetic information. If not, they couldn't be considered part of one species. Set-up 2 artificial environments so both groups would produce pollen at the same time. Fertilise both plants with the other's pollen. Then fertilise the plants with pollen from their own group.
Count the number of offspring each plant produces.
If the plants which were fertilised by the opposite group produce offspring, they are of the same species. You can then take this further if they are of the same species by analysing if there is any difference between the number (and health) of offspring produced by the crossed progeny and by the pure progeny. You'd have to take into account that some of them would want to grow at different times, so a study of the progeny from their first sprout until death (whilst emulating the seasons in your ideal controlled environment). Their success could then be compared to that of the pure-bred individuals.
Make sure to repeat this a few times, or have a number of plants to make sure your results are accurate.
Or if you couldn't do the controlled environment thing, just keep some pollen one year and use it to fertilise the other group.
I'd also put a hypothesis in there somewhere too.
The independent variable would be the number of plants pollinated. The dependant variable would be the number of progeny (offspring) produced.
Answer:
The cell cycle is a cycle of stages that cells pass through to allow them to divide and produce new cells. It is sometimes referred to as the “cell division cycle” for that reason.
New cells are born through the division of their “parent” cell, producing two “daughter” cells from one single “parent” cell.
Daughter cells start life small, containing only half of the parent cell’s cytoplasm and only one copy of the DNA that is the cell’s “blueprint” or “source code” for survival. In order to divide and produce “daughter cells” of their own, the newborn cells must grow and produce more copies of vital cellular machinery – including their DNA.
The two main parts of the cell cycle are mitosis and interphase.
Mitosis is the phase of cell division, during which a “parent cell” divides to create two “daughter cells.”
The longest part of the cell cycle is called “interphase” – the phase of growth and DNA replication between mitotic cell divisions.
Both mitosis and interphase are divided into smaller sub-phases which need to be executed in order for cell division, growth, and development to proceed smoothly. Here we will focus on interphase, as the phases of mitosis have been covered in our “Mitosis” article.
Interphase consists of at least three distinct stages during which the cell grows, produces new organelles, replicates its DNA, and finally divides.

The population of cactus dwelling birds will decrease and that of the animal they eat will increase.
Explanation:
When cacti is removed from the desert ecosystem, the birds that have their nest on the cacti will no longer have a home so they will migrate to other areas with favorable ecosystem.This will reduce the number of birds in this ecosystem.In turn, the animals that were feed by the birds will have the chance to multiply in numbers because a predator has been removed in the ecosystem.

I believe the correct answer among the choices presented above is the last option. It is in the Sahara desert that most-likely there is physical water scarcity. This is because it is a desert and it is a characteristic of a desert to have very small or no amount of water. Also, the climate their is very hot.
