Biology

Answer:

The correct answer will be-DNA replication.

Explanation:

DNA replication is the process which facilitates the cell to form an exact copy of the genetic material called DNA. This process takes place during the Synthesis phase of the cell cycle.

DNA replication is a complex process which is mediated by the enzymes- DNA helicase, DNA primase, DNA polymerase and DNA ligase.   The formation of the new DNA strand is an energy-dependent process that is it requires the ATP to bind new nucleotide to the strand.

Thus, DNA replication is the correct answer.

Two genes determining a trait In primroses, the dominant allele of gene K is necessary to synthesize blue flower pigment. Blue p
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

The ratio of blue to white offspring in the progeny is 4 blue : 12 white.

Explanation:

<u>Available data:</u>

  • The dominant allele K is necessary to synthesize blue flower pigment
  • K is inhibited by the dominant allele D
  • Plants with the genotype K- D- will not produce pigment (and their flowers will be white)

Cross: testcross for (Kk Dd) plants

Parental)   KkDd     x     kkdd

Gametes) KD   kD   Kd   kd      

                kd   kd   kd   kd

Punnet square)        KD        Kd       kD       kd

                      kd     KkDd   Kkdd   kkDd   kkdd

                      kd     KkDd  Kkdd   kkDd   kkdd

                      kd     KkDd   Kkdd   kkDd   kkdd

                      kd     KkDd   Kkdd   kkDd   kkdd

  • Whenever D is present, it inhibits the expression of the K gene, so every plant with the dominant D allele will be white. This plants´ genotype is kkD- or K-D-.
  • Whenever D is absent and K is present, every plant with genotype K-dd will be blue.
  • The recessive form for K and D genes will express white-flowered plants, with genotype ddkk

F1) Progeny genotype: 4/16 KkDd, white-flowered plants

                                      4/16 Kkdd, blue-flowered plants

                                      4/16 kkDd, white-flowered plants

                                      4/16 kkdd, white-flowered plants

     The ratio of blue to white offspring in the progeny is 4 blue : 12 white.

     Blue-flowered plants: 4 Kkdd

     White-flowered plants: 4 KkDd + 4 kkDd + 4 kkdd

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

The given steps are of light phase of photsynthesis.

1)A photon of light excites photosystem II.

2)A water molecule is split, the electrons are transferred to photosystem II.

3)Oxygen is formed as an endproduct.

4)An electron is transferred from photosystem II to the primary electron acceptor.

5)ATP is synthesized as the electrons pass through an electron transport chain to photosystem I.

6)A photon of light strikes photosystem I, an excited electron is transferred to the primary electron acceptor.

7) An electron is transfered from an electron transport chain from photosystem II to photosystem I's primary electron acceptor.

8)Electrons are passed from photosystem I through an electron transport chain.

9)NADP+ is reduced to NADPH.
