The right answer is law of segregation

Mendel derives from his observations two fundamental principles, to which will be added later a third resulting. In his case, experiments on peas enabled Mendel to formulate the principles involved in heredity.

<u>Mendel discovers that:</u>

* A character can present two different forms (today called alleles or homologous genes).

* An organism inherits two factors for each trait (Mendel's hereditary factors are now called "genes").

* The dominant factor masks the recessive factor. Mendel noted the dominant factor using a capital letter and the other, the recessive, using the same letter but in lower case .

* The two factors separate during gamete formation (Segregation law that corresponds to the separation of homologous chromosome pairs during meiosis) .

* The pairs of factors separate independently of each other (independent segregation law that corresponds to the independent assortment of chromosome pairs homologous to metaphase 1 of the first meiotic division).

Which enzymes are found in detergents that remove mucus and oil stains from cloth soaked in water ?

Annette [7]

Answer:

Most biological laundry detergents contain lipase and protease enzymes, both of which are found in the body. Lipases break down fats and oils, while proteases work to break down protein chains. Their ability to break down these compounds makes them excellent for stain removal.

Suppose the interior of the thylakoids of isolated chloroplasts were made acidic and then transferred in the dark to a pH 8 solu

Lilit [14]

Answer: (A) The isolated chloroplasts will make ATP

Explanation:

The Thylakoid will receive hydrogen from the acid which is pumped across the thylakoid membrane, and the electrochemical proton synthesis of ATP begins in the stroma. Once the chloroplast has been transferred to the dark, high-energy electrons are loaded together with (H+) onto NADP+, converting it to NADPH.

How do the laws of thermodynamics relate to the transformation of energy in organisms? Use the terms autotroph and heterotroph w

yarga [219]

Answer:

he organisms that can fix energy from inorganic sources into organic molecules are called autotrophs. Organisms that cannot make their food from inorganic sources but depend on energy rich organic molecules synthesized by autotrophs for their energy needs are called heterotrophs.

The only source of energy for all the ecosystems of the earth is the sun. Light falling on the plants is trapped by the producers or autotrophs in the presence of chlorophyll and is used in synthesizing the organic food called glucose by the process of photosynthesis. By photosynthesis radiant energy of sunlight is transformed into potential energy of food. A part of this energy is trapped by the producers while the rest of the energy is dissipated. The remaining part of energy which is used in the synthesis of plant biomass is called photosynthate which is then available to the next trophic level in the food chain that is the consumers or heterotrophs. In an ecosystem there is a unidirectional flow of energy.
