Answer:

The correct answer is option D-the underside of the sporophyte.

Explanation:

Ferns are pteridophytes which evolved earlier than the flowering plants. They do not produce seeds and reproduce through spores.

These spores are usually present on the underside of fern leaf also called "fronds" in sporophytic structures called sori. When these spores are ripened they are released from the capsule which germinates to produce prothallus, a gametophyte from which gametes are produced.

Thus, option D-the underside of the sporophyte is the correct option.

Which statement is one of fact supporting how pH and flower color are related?
Goshia [24]
Yes, pH of the soil affects the colour of flower.

Flowering plants grown in acidic soil (pH<7) bears blue flowers or at has a blueish tint.

Whereas, Flowering plants grown in Neutral (pH=7) and Basic (pH>7) soil bears pink and red flowers.

A plant's flower color is determined by a complex balance between chlorophyll, beta carotene, flavonoids,etc in particular pH of the soil to give out vibrant colors like red, blue, pink, yellow,etc.

What is the main difference bwtween prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells​
Ymorist [56]

Prokaryotic Cells = do not have a nucleus; generally smaller and simpler that Eukaryotic cells.

-Smaller

-does NOT have a Nucleus

-translates to ‘no Nucleus’ OR  ‘no true Nucleus’

-simpler

-they don't have all of their genetic material bound in a nucleus, which is why they are simpler forms of life.

-Prokaryotic cells do have genetic information but it is just stored differently

Ex: Bacteria and Single-Celled organisms

Eukaryotic Cells = Contains a Nucleus and are usually larger and more complex than a Prokaryotic cell

-Bigger

-DOES have a Nucleus

-More Complex

-Specialized to do certain things

Ex: All the Cells in a Human’s body. Skin cells, Red Blood cells

An allosteric protein demonstrates a decrease in its Kg for molecule Y as the concentration of molecule X increases. Based on th
djyliett [7]

Answer:

X is negative heterotropic modulator

Explanation:

In allosteric regulations, modulators are molecules that causes a change in the conformation of an enzyme, hence, resulting a change in enzyme activity. It can lead to a decrease or an increase of the enzyme.  When a molecule decreases the enzyme activity it called a negative modulator, when it increases or activates the enzyme activity, it is called a positive modulator.

A positive or negative modulator can either be homotrophic (substrate acts as modulator) or heterotropic (another ligand acts as modulator).

In the example above, X is negative heterotropic modulator, because the modulator is different from the substrate and it also decreases the enzyme activity.
