Write the formula that shows the release of energy by a molecule of ATP
Zina [86]
<span>C6H12O6+6O2-->6CO2+6H2O+ATP
 Okay so, </span><span>All living organisms respire in order to release energy from glucose. The energy released is stored as chemical energy in the form of a molecule called ATP. This molecule contains high energy bonds which, when broken down, release energy that is available for metabolic reactions within the cell. The waste products of respiration are carbon dioxide and water. Carbon dioxide is released to the air. :)</span>

Which best describes the relationship between population size, carrying capacity, and limiting factors?
myrzilka [38]

Answer: The correct answer is- C.

Carrying capacity can be described as the maximum number of organisms belonging to a particular species that can be sustained by resources present in the area.

Due to the presence of limiting factors ( such as food, water, weather conditions), the size of a population usually stays near its carrying capacity.

This is because initially population experience rapid growth but later on due the limiting factor ( environmental factor that causes decline in the population) it will decline and then stabilize near the carrying capacity.

Thus, population size stays near the carrying capacity because of limiting factors.

If flies that are heterozygous for all three traits are crossed, what proportion of the offspring would you expect to be heteroz
Archy [21]

Answer:

\frac{1}{8}

Explanation:

If flies that are heterozygous for all three traits are crossed; e.g HtHtHt crosses with HtHtHt. The proportion of the offspring that would be expected to be heterozygous for all three traits will be: 1/8 because 50% (0.5) of their offspring will be heterozygous for just one trait. Therefore for three traits; we have (0.5)³= 0.125

0.125 is equivalent to \frac{1}{8}

From the table, the area of the asterisk region illustrate the traits that are heterozygous in the offspring.

= \frac{8}{64}

= \frac{1}{8}
