Ashe junipers in TX (sometimes called "Texas Cedars") make lots of pollen in the spring. Later in the summer, they will bear numerous fleshy, dark blue "berries" that are eaten by birds. These "berries" are not truly biological fruits because the junipers:__________

B) are gymnosperms
C) are conifers
D) produce fleshy cones
E) all of the above

Respuesta :

E) option is correct

Explanation:

Some characteristics of Ashes junipers include:

  • Dense foliage provides cover for wildlife
  • Juniper is a very drought tolerant and evergreen shade tree, perfect for a privacy screen
  • Berries provide food for cedar waxwings and the American robin, both beautiful songbirds
  • The stringy bark of mature juniper provides nesting material for the federally endangered golden-cheeked warbler, another beautiful songbird that reproduces only in the Texas Hill Country
  • Female trees produce blue berries that are quite lovely and do not produce the allergenic pollen of the male trees
  • It acts as a “nursery tree” providing shade for young, tender saplings of highly desirable trees and shrubs
