If a pollen grain lands on the stigma of a plant of a different species: -the pollen grain would be unable to form a generative cell. -the pollen grain would be ejected from the stigma. -the pollen grain would be too large or too small to enter the stigma. -the pollen grain may not be able to germinate. -the pollen would likely not attach to the stigma.

The data that is attached below was collected during a lettuce seed ecotoxicity assay. Lettuce seed assays are used to compare the ecotoxicity of methanol, ethanol, and isopropanol by these alcohols' effects on germination rate and root elongination. Using the attached data, help answer which alcohol seems to be the most toxic to lettuce seeds. Why or why not would your results be expected? What does this information tell you about using ecotoxicity data to estimate human toxicity?
