Answer: The lipid bilayer forms a barrier to molecules because it consists of closely-packed molecules with long nonpolar hydrocarbon chains.
Explanation:
<span>The question says,'the orange colour of carrot roots and marigold flowers comes from cell bodies known as chromoplasts. The statement is true. Chromoplasts are coloured plastids, they usually contain a yellow or orange pigment. They can be found in roots, leaves, fruits and ageing leaves and are responsible for the distinctive colours of these plant parts.</span>
The soles of people’s feet have a greater concentration of sensory receptors because more people are ticklish on the bottoms of their feet than the backs of their necks. There are more neurons in your appendages especially the ends of them because they are the furthest from the brain. Getting a tattoo on your feet vs. the back of your neck hurts more as well, making the soles of your feet have the greater concentration.
The two types of crust are oceanic and continental, the lithosphere is composed of earth's crust and upper most mantle
Answer:
C
Explanation:
This is a monohybrid cross between involving a gene coding for earlobe. The allele for free earlobe (F) is dominant over that of attached earlobe (f).
N.B: let F represent the gene involved.
A genotypic ratio is the ratio derived from the offsprings based on the actual genetic make-up and not based on their phenotypic appearance as in phenotypic ratio.
A homozygous individual is an individual having the same kind of alleles for a gene while a heterozygous individual is one that has two different alleles i.e. combination of the dominant and recessive allele.
The monohybrid cross is between an individual with attached earlobe (ff) i.e. homozygous recessive individual. (Note that, a recessive trait will only be expressed in a homozygous state) and a heterozygous free earlobeb individual (Ff). (See attached picture). Ff × ff
The resulting four offsprings will
be expected to have only two distinct genotypes i.e heterozygous (Ff) and homozygous recessive (ff) in an equal ratio i.e. 2:2 ~ 1:1
