Dandelion

I came across these interesting questions (on the web) that someone had asked, followed by their observations:
1. How do the yellow petals of dandelions become those white fluffy things?
2. How long does the transformation take?
3. Does it take place only at night?
I have examined hundreds of Dandelions during the season that turn from yellow to white. I have NEVER found a transitional stage! They are always completely yellow, flowerish or completely white, parachutish.

If you're curious what the biologist's answer was, here's the link...
