Why is it important that the seedling’s true leaves grow quickly?HURRY IM BEING TIMED to help disperse seeds to areas where they can grow
to shield the seedling from too much water or rain
to protect the seedling from receiving too much sunlight
to make food for the seedling’s continued growth

The correct answer is - to make food for the seedling’s continued growth.

Explanation:

The true leaves that emerge from the seedlings are the leaves that are capable of performing photosynthesis and start generating food and energy. These support the plant for the rest of its life in terms of food and energy.

Seedlings grow from the soil, two leaves in beginning called cotyledons that are not the true leaves and not able to perform photosynthesis and generate their food for the seedling’s continued growth.

as in mitosis, dna replication occurs during interphase.   in meiosis, it occurs specifically in s phase of interphase 1.
