1. Photosynthesis produces two products, glucose and oxygen.
2. Respiration will take the products of photosynthesis and convert them into carbon dioxide and water.
Answer: Crossing-over allows the genes that come from each parent to recombine before they are passed on to future generations because chromatids of homologous chromosomes mate and exchange sections of their DNA.
Explanation:
Chromosome crossing-over is the process by which chromatids of homologous chromosomes mate and exchange sections of their DNA during prophase I of meiosis, when pairs of homologous chromosomes, or of the same type, are aligned. The chromatids of the homologous chromosomes break off in the chiasmas and rejoin to allow recombination of the linked genes. So it occurs when regions at chromosome breaks mate and then reconnect to the other chromosome. <u>The result of this process is an exchange of genes, called genetic recombination</u>.
This allows the genes that come from each parent to recombine before they are passed on to future generations. Then, <u>it is an important source of genetic variability</u>, since it involves an exchange of segments between homologous chromosomes during the development of gametes. <u>This process allows that the descendants of an individual are genetically very different</u>, since it is very unlikely that an individual produces two equal gametes, because all of them have different segments of the homologous chromosomes.
The correct answer is soil structure. Soil structure refers to the arrangement of soil separates into units which are called soil aggregates which possess solids and pore space. Aggregates are separated by planes of weakness and are dominated by clay particles. Example of an aggregate is silt and fine sand.
Energy can’t be created or destroyed.
Answer: The correct answer is option b.
Explanation:
RNA viruses have RNA as genetic material whereas the host cells usually have DNA as genetic material.
So, in order to integrate its genome with host DNA, the virus must form DNA from RNA, that is, reverse transcription.
It is the process by which DNA is formed using RNA as a template strand.
However, reverse transcriptase (enzyme which catalyzes reverse transcription) is usually not present in host cells.
Thus, RNA viruses carry their own set of enzymes which help in the replication of viral genome and its recombination with host DNA as host cells lack these enzymes.
