Why do warmer and wetter biomes have higher net primary productivity

Biology
1 answer:
Andrej [43]4 years ago
5 0
<span>biomes vary in their rates of net primary production-biomass that remains after cellular respiration limited by sunlight and nutrients available In general, warmer and wetter biomes have higher net primary productivity than colder and drier biomes. The reason for this trend is that plants require sunlight, water, and temperatures warm enough to grow. This is true even in aquatic ecosystems, where sunlight and the availability of nutrients determine the level of net primary productivity.</span>

What does chloroplast do?
mixer [17]
Chloroplasts convert sunlight (energy) with water and carbon dioxide gas to produce sugar (food) for plants and some types of alge. They do this process with chlorophyll and the process itself is called photosynthesis. In a good number of plants this process has two systems the photosystem I and photosystem II.

Answer: Incomplete dominance

Explanation: Incomplete dominance is a type of inheritance, specifically a type of intermediate inheritance when a dominant allele, or form of a gene, does not completely mask the effects of a recessive allele, and the organism’s resulting physical appearance shows a blending of both alleles. The result is a phenotype (expression) where the expressed physical trait is a combination of both of the phenotypes that belong to the alleles. One allele doesn’t mask or dominate the other alleles in this instance. It is also called semi-dominance or partial dominance.

In short, incomplete dominance is when neither gene is fully dominant, and the result is a brand new trait.

The Punnett square shows genetic inheritance as a simple model with only two different versions of alleles: dominant and recessive. In this simple relationship, dominant alleles always override the recessive alleles to be expressed in the organism’s appearance or phenotype. It was created by Gregor Mendel and was important because it contradicted popular ideas at the time that the traits of the parents were simply permanently blended within their offspring. However, modern biologists have discovered that inheritance isn’t as simple as this model would suggest.

An example of incomlete dominance in humans would be hypercholesterolemia.
