The answer is; synergism

An example of synergism in toxicology is the use of pyrethrin (an insecticide) and piperonyl butoxide(which in itself is not an insecticide). When used in combination, the pyrethrin becomes 10 times more toxic to target insects than the use of pyrethrin alone.

What is the type of inheritance shown in the following pedigree? Blue represents no disease symptoms, pink represents having dis
klasskru [66]

Answer:

Explanation:

If the disorder is recessive, neither parent has to have the disorder because

they can be heterozygous. The characteristic features of autosomal recessive inheritance is as follows:-

•Appears in both sexes with equal frequency

• Trait tend to skip generations

• Affected offspring are usually born to unaffected parents

• When both parents are heterozygous approx. 1/4 of the progeny will be affected

• Appears more frequently among the children of consanguineous marriages.

The given pedigree follows these features. So the correct option is 'Autosomal recessive trait'.

Please correct me If I am wrong :)

During respiration, a seed metabolizes sugars. what is the source of the sugar metabolized by the seed?
pashok25 [27]

The source of the sugar metabolized by the seed is photosynthesis.  

The procedure used by plants to transform light energy into a chemical form of energy is known as photosynthesis. The chemical energy can afterward be discharged to fuel the plants to perform their activities.  

During photosynthesis, carbon dioxide and water can be combined in the existence of chlorophyll and sunlight to generate oxygen and glucose (carbohydrates). However, the prime component generated in the procedure is glucose (sugar) that is the molecule, which generates energy to mediate the activities of the cell.

kvv77 [185]

Answer: C_6H_{12}O_6

Explanation: Photosynthesis is a phenomenon in which green plants containing chlorophyll use sunlight as a source of energy to convert carbon dioxide and water to form glucose and oxygen.

Photosynthesis is the process used by plants, algae and certain bacteria to convert energy from sunlight and turn it into chemical energy in the form of glucose which is used a s a source of energy by many organisms.

The balanced chemical equation for photosynthesis is written as :

6CO_2+6H_2O\overset{sunlight}\rightarrow C_6H_{12}O_6+6O_2
