asambeis [7]

Answer:

The correct answer would be- 1:1:1:1.

Explanation:

According to the question the cross between the two pea plants with the genotype RrYy and rryy where R for round seeds and r for recessive form that expressed wrinkled seed character. The other character of this dihybrid cross is the color of the seds Y for green and y for yellow seeds.

The cross is shown in the image attached that suggests that phenotypic ratio would be 1:1:1:1 as RrYy, Rryy, rrYy, and rryy.

Thus, the correct answer is : 1:1:1:1.

lora16 [44]

Answer:

B. At what rate do the mitochondria of the cell need to convert glucose to usable energy molecules to meet the high energy needs of the cell?

Explanation:

Organelles are specific in their functioning and hence, each organelle contributes its own quota to the cell's proper functioning. According to the question, a muscle tissue is being worked on to determine the effect of a missing or damaged organelle on its cell.

Mitochondria are organelles found in all eukaryotic living cells. They are the organelles responsible for the synthesis of ATP (energy) used by the cell as a result of the glucose that gets converted in them during cellular respiration.

Therefore, to determine if the muscle cells are functioning properly, the question that: At what rate do the mitochondria of the cell need to convert glucose to usable energy molecules to meet the high energy needs of the cell? should be asked.

Note that, Chloroplast and cell wall are not found in muscle cells, which is an animal cell. Likewise, ribosomes are not organelles for synthesis of glucose.
