Which mimulus species would you categorize as mainly asexual reproducers? why? a. m. rupestris and m. eastwoodiae; they put more energy into making nectar and seeds than they put into making rooted branches. b. m. rupestris and m. eastwoodiae; they put more energy into making rooted branches than they put into making nectar and seeds. c. m. rupestris, m. eastwoodiae, and m. nelsonii; they put more energy into making rooted branches than they put into making nectar and seeds. d. m. nelsonii, m. verbenaceus, and m. cardinalis; they put more energy into making nectar and seeds than they put into making rooted branches.

C. M. rupestris, M. eastwoodiae, and M. nelsonii; they put more energy into making rooted branches than they put into making nectar and seeds.

Explanation:

In asexual mode of reproduction the plant does not produce gametes. The plant reproduce through vegetative propagation or spore formation. The plant does not produce nectar as no flowers are produced to attract the pollinators.

In sexual mode of reproduction the plant will develop the gametes and flowers will produce the nectar to attract the pollinators.

Thus on the basis of above explaination, C is the correct option. As the plants will invest more energy in making roots which are the organs for vegetative propagation a process of asexual reproduction.
