Science-related question - need help getting an answer

I need help with this question. Anyone who can help me answer this one question would be appreciated.

"Why would self-fertilizing plants help to save reserves of oil, natural gas, and minerals?"

Have a guess Dark.

I would be intrigued to hear your own ridiculous thoughts on the subject before adding my own educated ones.

That's my problem - I can't even guess the answer to this as I have no idea how it would help the environment

SCIENCE JUST CAN'T LEAVE ANYTHING ALONE!!!!

Well Dark, you were right about one thing - you really do need help.

And not solely for answering this question.

hey Chaz lets make lil chemistry;) hehe

what was first the chicken or the egg?

can you answer that Dark :)

It was the Chicken!

God created the Chicken first, same with evlution!

bwak!

God created the chicken first?

What, before the mountains and everything?
And why did he give it wings but not let it fly?

Now that's just cruel.

the egg was first, i'm sure :)

Do your own homework, you lazy bastard

"what was first the chicken or the egg?"

The egg, of course. It's been scientifically proven

So the egg just appeared then, and didn't pop out of a chicken's shag-box?

It's an age old mystery, which I feel will never truly be solved. Another is: why do seemingly sane people vote Labour?

Apologies for my use of the term 'shag-box' by the way.

I'm sure all these helpful pointers will ensure you pass your exam with flying colours Dark.
You're very lucky to have us.
