Answer:
Which of the following explains the most likely effect this toxin will have on the Calvin cycle? Carbon dioxide will not be converted into carbohydrates. The toxin inhibits RuBisCO from catalyzing the joining of carbon dioxide with RuBP. This prevents carbon fixation, so the Calvin cycle will not occur.
Answer:
Please find the detailed explanation of this statement below
Explanation:
Firstly, a repressed gene is a gene whose expression has been inhibited or repressed. The lac operon in E.coli bacteria is a regulatory unit containing structural genes, a single promoter and operator regions. The promoter is the region where the transcription enzyme (RNA polymerase) binds to in order to transcribe the genes in the lac operon. The structural genes in the lac operon can only be expressed in the presence of lactose sugar.
However, in the absence of lactose, LAC REPRESSOR, which is a transcription factor (protein), prevents the binding of RNA polymerase to the PROMOTER region by binding to the OPERATOR region of the lac operon. This inhibits the expression of the lactose genes in the operon.
Note that, the structural genes in the lac operon (lacZ, lacY, lacA) code for proteins that help break down lactose sugar for energy in the E.coli bacteria. Therefore, a bacteria cell with a repressed lac operon will be unable to degrade lactose sugar.
Answer:
option B
Explanation:
On a biological level, the main difference is that bacteria are free-living cells that can live inside or outside a body, while viruses are a non-living collection of molecules that need a host to survive.

Answer:
Class I: Hepaticopsida ( Liverworts)
Class II: Anthocerotopsida ( Hornworts)
Class III: Bryopsida ( Mosses)
Explanation:
Bryophytes are small plants that grows in moist and shady places.They don't attain great heights because of absence of roots, vascular tissues, mechanical tissues and cuticle. They are terrestrial but require external water to complete their life cycle. Hence they are called as the" amphibians" of the animal kingdom.
Class I: Hepaticopsida or Hepaticae
- Gametophytic plant body is either thalloid or foliose. If foliose the lateral appendages are without midrib.
- Rhizoids without septa
- Each cell in the thallus contain many chloroplasts
- Sex organs are embedded in the dorsal surface
- Capsule lacks columella
- Sporophyte may be simple having only one capsule or differentiated into root, seta and capsule
- It has 4 orders: Calobryales, Jungermanniales, Spherocarpales and Marchantiales
Class 2: Anthocerotae or Anthocerotopsids:
- Gametophytic plant body is simple, thalloid;thallus dorsiventra without air chambers shows no internal differentiation of tissues
- Scales are absent in the thallus
- Each cell of the thallus possess a single large chloroplast with a pyrenoid
- Sporophyte is cylindrical only partly dependent on gametophyte for its nourishment. It is differentiated into bulbous foot and cyclindrical capsule. Seta is meristematic.
- Endotheciumforms the sterile central column in the capsule. It have ony one order Anthocerotales
Class 3: Musci or Bryopsida
- Gametophyte is differentiated into prostrate protonema and an erect gametophores
- Gametophore ids foliose, differentiated into axis and lateral appendages like leaves but without midrib.
- Rhizoids are multicellular with oblique septa
- Elaters are absent in the capsule of sporangium
- The sex organs are produced in seperate branches immersed in a group of leaves.
- It has only three orders: Bryales, Andriales and Sphagnales
Bryophytes are used as a packaging material for fragile goods, glasswares etc.Mosses are good source of animal food in rocky and snow clad areas. Decoction prepared by boiling Sphagnum in water is used for the treatment of eye disease.
