Paper chromatography is a technique used to separate molecules based upon their size and solubility in a particular solvent. If

pigments from a particular species of plant are extracted and subjected to paper chromatography, which of the following results is most likely?
a. Paper chromatography would separate the pigments into several bands that appear green or yellow/orange.
b. Paper chromatography would separate the pigments into two bands, one that appears blue and one that appears red.
c. Paper chromatography would produce a single band of pigment that is characteristic of that particular plant.
d. Paper chromatography would separate the pigments into two bands that appear green.

Answer:

a. Paper chromatography would separate the pigments into several bands that appear green or yellow/orange.

Explanation:

The primary or main pigment in plants is the chlorophyll. The chlorophyll gives plants their characteristics green colour and helps in the absorption of light during photosynthesis.

Other pigments in plants include carotenoid with its characteristic yellow, red or orange colour; anthocyanin with its re/blue colour and betalains with its red/yellow colour.

<em>Hence, if pigments from a particular species of plant are extracted and subjected to paper chromatography, one would expect the pigments to be separated into several colour bands ranging from green to yellow/orange.</em>

The correct option is a.

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

Height is affected by multiple pairs of genes on different chromosomes.

Explanation:

The height is a quantitative trait, it is a phenotypic feature that presents a continuous range of variation in the population. The cumulative effects of many genes and the environment produce a normal distribution bell-shaped curve when they are drawn, this being a characteristic of quantitative genetic traits. Examples of quantitative traits include, among others, height, metabolic rate and weight.

What is the phenotypic ratio of the offspring when a man who has type A blood, and whose mother had type O blood, marries a woma
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

The correct answer is - 2 type A : 1 type AB : 1 type B

Explanation:

The pattern of the inheritance in the ABO blood group system is the example of the multiple alleles and codominance. There are three alleles in this sytem that determines what blood group would be in an indvidual that are; IA, IB, and IO. The allele IO is a recessive allele to both IA, and IB alleles whereas IA and IB are show codominance when present in heterzygous condition.

Genotype of a person with “A” blood group can be IA IO  or IA IA but as it is given that the mother of the male with A bglood group is O blood group which means there must be a IO allele would be present in the male too so the genotype would be IAIO.

The genotype of AB blood group mother would be IAIB as shows codominance. so the cross between these woulde be as follows:

IA IO  x IA IB

Gametes :

IA  IO , and IA  IB

  IA       IO

IA    IAIA    IAIO

IB    IAIB    IBIO

phenotypic ratio = 2 A group : 1 AB group : 1 B group
