Biology

Answer:

Carbon, Hydrogen and Oxygen

Explanation:

The chemical composition of glucose is C6H12O6

The chemical composition of fructose is C6H12O6

The chemical composition of Sucrose is C12H22O11

As we can see that all the three molecules i.e glucose, fructose and sucrose have carbon, hydrogen and oxygen in their chemical formula. However, if we consider the general definition of carbohydrates  we can see that a carbohydrate is a macro molecule composed of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen

All carbohydrates are made up of carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen.

The chemical formula for Glucose is C_{6}  H_{12}  O_{6} .
The chemical formula for Fructose is the same as that of Glucose. The difference between the two is how they are structured.
The chemical formula for Sucrose is C_{12} H_{22}  O_{11} .

As you can see in the chemical formulas of Glucose, Fructose, and Sucrose, they are all made up of the elements carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.

Round pea allele R is dominant to wrinkled pea allele r, while yellow pea allele Y is dominant to green pea allele y. Homozygous
allsm [11]

Answer:

RrYy (F1 generation)

Explanation:

This is a typical dihybrid cross involving two genes in the pea plant; one coding for seed colour and the other for seed shape.

According to Mendel's law of dominance, an allele is capable of masking another allele in a gene, the allele that masks or is expressed is called the DOMINANT allele while the allele being masked is called RECESSIVE allele.

Homozygosity of a gene refers to it having the same type of alleles while heterozygosity refers to having different alleles.

In this example, allele for Round (R) and Yellow (Y) pea is dominant over the allele for Wrinkled (r) and green pea respectively.

Homozygous round green pea (RRyy) crossed with Homozygous wrinkled yellow (rrYY) will give rise to a heterozygous round yellow (RrYy) F1 offsprings.

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

INVASIVE species

Explanation:

In biology, an organism is said to be INVASIVE if the organism is foreign to a particular region or habitat and possess the unpleasant ability to proliferate or grow rapidly to the point of competing with local species of organisms.

According to this question, humans are said to introduce organisms that have the ability to harm the local flora and fauna. Hence, these organisms are INVASIVE SPECIES because they are foreign to that place and cause damage in their new environment.
