Two highly inbred tobacco plants are crossed. One has dark green leaves. The other has yellow leaves. The F1 have light green le

aves. Five hundred progeny from F1 × F1 crosses are analyzed. Their leaves show continuous variation in color, but none has dark green or yellow leaves. What do these data suggest about the number of genes determining this trait?
A) There are two genes that determine this trait.
B) There are more than four genes that determine this trait.
C) There are three genes that determine this trait.
D) There are four genes that determine this trait.
E) There is not enough information to estimate the number of genes.

Answer: Option B - There are more than four genes that determine this trait.

Explanation:

The tobacco plant species have its leaf colour with characteristics that changes gradually over a range of values, which refers to continuous variation.

Note that continuous variation keep expressing gene variants in successive generations of the tobacco plants, that differs from the parents. So, there are MORE THAN four genes controling the expression of varying phenotypes in the leaves

What is the best conclusion? The rate of cellular respiration in germinating peas is exactly one thousand times the rate of ATP
Nady [450]

The given question is incomplete, the complete question is:

During germination, peas sprout and grow. The data table shows the carbon dioxide produced during the germination period of peas under different conditions. Condition Rate of carbon dioxide produced (mL/min) Germinating peas, 10ºC 0.01 Germinating peas, 20ºC 0.02 What is the best conclusion? The rate of cellular respiration in germinating peas is exactly one thousand times the rate of ATP production. Germinating peas at 10ºC create carbon dioxide at a rate of 0.01 mL/min during ATP production. Germinating peas at 20ºC have a higher rate of cellular respiration than germinating peas at 10ºC. The rate of cellular respiration cannot be measured without knowing the rate of ATP production.

Answer:

The correct statement is that at 20 degree C, the germinating peas exhibits a higher rate of cellular respiration in comparison to the germinating peas at 10 degree C.

Explanation:

The process of respiration results in the production of carbon dioxide, respiration refers to a chemical reaction that generates water, carbon dioxide, and energy by undergoing oxidation of the glucose molecules. This phenomenon plays an essential role in the life of the organisms for obtaining energy from the food they consume to perform daily activities.  

From the question, it is evident that the peas, which were germinating at 20 degrees C exhibit a higher rate of cellular respiration as they are generating 0.02 milliliters of carbon dioxide in a minute, while on the other hand, the germinating peas at 10 degrees C are giving rise to 0.01 milliliters of carbon dioxide in a minute.

Through which microscope were cells first observed?
poizon [28]

Compound microscope

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

In 1665, Robert Hooke used a compound microscope to observe cells. Hooke observes the cell walls of dead plants (in the form of cork) when they appear under a microscope. He named it the cell because it looked similar to a cellula or small room inhabited by monks.

Development of microscopy:

  • 1590: Hans and Zacharias Janssen, as Dutch lens grinders, mounted two lenses in a tube to produce the first compound microscope.
  • 1660: Robert Hooke published <em>Micrographia</em>, containing detailed observations of biological materials made with the best compound microscope.
  • 1676: Anton van Leeuwenhoek was the first person to observe a live cell under a microscope, i.e., the algae Spirogyra.
  • 1931: Ernst Ruska constructed the first electron microscope. With the invention of the electron microscope, many infectious agents smaller than bacteria could be seen.

Until now, we can see how important the use of microscopes, especially in microbiology, that is the study of microorganisms.
