A botanist defines “rapid bloomers” as species whose seeds germinate in 5 days or fewer and “slow bloomers” as those that require more than 5 days to germinate.
In 2023, botanist Dr. Elena Márquez and her team announced the discovery of the five alpine wildflower species listed in the table and claimed that three of them are rapid bloomers and two are slow bloomers.
Which choice best describes data from the table that support Márquez and her team’s claim?
