Answer: The correct answer is-

D.  Factors for some traits are inherited from parents.

Gregor Mendel studied certain traits in pea plant and deduce the pattern of their inheritance using various experiments. According to Mendelian inheritance pattern, a characteristic or trait in an organism is depicted by single gene loci.

In other words, a single gene that exist in two alternative forms ( also known as alleles, which are dominant and recessive allele) depicts a particular trait (such as pea shape, pea color, height of pea plant).

He discovered that for some traits in organisms, factors are inherited from parents to their offspring ( that is from one generation to another) and these factors were later called genes ( also known as unit of heredity).

Thus, option D) is the right answer.

How does prokaryotic transcription and translation differ from these processes in eukaryotic cells?
daser333 [38]

A

Explanation:

The genome of prokaryotes has no introns hence their mRNA does not need splicing like in eukaryotic cells. Also, because the genome of prokaryotes is not delimited from the cytoplasm by a nuclear membrane, ribosomes can attach to the elongating mRNA during transcription and begin translation. Therefore translation of mRNA occurs concurrently with transcription which cannot happen with eukaryotic cells.

In the nucleus of eukaryotic cells, transcription results to a nascent mRNA which is spliced into a mature mRNA.The mature mRNA has to travel outside the nucleus to the cytoplasm to be translated by ribosomes.

Determine how to make positive and negative ions. Based on your exploration which subatomic particle is positive? Which subatomi
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

Atoms are electrically neutral as a result of having an equal amount of positive (due to the protons) and negative (due to the electrons) charges on it.

An ion generally is an electrically unbalanced atom (i.e an atom with a net charge on it)

A negative ion called an anion is produced when an atom gains an extra electron from a neighboring atom, giving it an extra negative charge. This can be produced by ionization with a radioactive radiation or simply by dissolution.

A positive ion is called a cation and it is produced when an atom loses electron to a neighboring atom. The loss of this electron causes the positive charges to outweigh the negative charges in the atom. Cations can be produced by radioactive radiation ionization of an atom or by simple dissolution.

The subatomic particle that is negative is the 'electron'.

Even land that is now very diverse once started out as what?
evablogger [386]

As of right now, the land is pretty spread out. But millions of years ago, like, we're talking dino time, all the land was just one chunk. This chunk was called Pangaea, or Pangea. But before everything split apart into multiple continents, there was just one; a supercontinent. Hope that helps!
