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).

Surprisingly, in a number of reactions in which either ATP or GTP are involved, the critical event is not due to the hydrolysis

kkurt [141]

Answer:

The correct answer is option d. "phosphorylation of glucose".

Explanation:

The phosphorylation of glucose is one of the most important catabolic reactions that allow to obtain energy from sugars. This reaction is the first step of glycolysis and avoid cells to lose sugars by diffusing back to its transporter. The phosphate used to phosphorylate glucose comes from the hydrolysis of one of the three phosphate of adenosine triphosphate. Therefore, phosphorylation of glucose is a processes where ATP hydrolysis is directly involved.

1- Combustion reactions are exothermic reactions since these reactions result in the emission of heat (heat is a product and not a reactant)

2- A substance with higher specific heat that water would be liquid ammonia. This means that, for the same amount of energy given to both water and liquid ammonia, water will heat faster and gain more thermal energy (in degree celcius) that liquid ammonia.

3- Conduction : occurs when heat is directly transmitted from a material to another due to the difference in temperature between both. Examples are:
a- when using an iron the heat is transferred from the iron to the piece of clothe being ironed
b- if you hold a hot cup heat will transfer to your hand
c- when you hold chocolate with your bare hand it will melt due to the transfer of heat from your hand to the chocolate
d- when you heat food on the stove the heat will transfer from the flame to the pan
e- when you hold ice it melts due to the transfer of heat from your hand to the ice piece
f- when you place hot liquid in a cup the heat will transfer from the liquid to the cup and the cup will become hot
g- if you place a spoon in a plate containing hot food the heat will be transferred from the food to the spoon making it hot
h- when you walk on the sand beach during summer the heat will be transferred from the sand to your feet and your feet will be hot
i- if you hold someone's hand when he/sh is cold the heat will be transferred from your hand to his/hers
j- Light bulbs emit heat, if you touch them this heat will be transferred to your body

4- Convection : is the transfer of heat through liquids or gases. Examples:
a- when water at the bottom of a pot is heated, it transfers this heat to the water above by convection
b- the process of ice melting when left in the air where heat is transferred from the air to the ice
c- the same goes for chocolate melting
d- cooling a frozen substance using running water where heat is transferred from the water to the frozen substance
e- when you stream a hot cup of tea/coffee, you transfer heat from the tea/coffee to the air
f- when a radiator moves the hot air upwards and the cold air downwards
g- when a balloon rises up wen being filled with hot air
h- when the ocean circulates and heat is transferred from warm water to cool water
i- when heat is transferred from a bulb to the surrounding air
j- when you cool the radiator of your car using water where water is transferred from the radiator to the water.

5- Radiation: the emission of energy in the form of waves. Examples:
a- the sunlight (ultraviolet radiations of sunlight)
b- x-rays
c- the flame/light of a candle
d- the gamma radiations from the explosion of a star
e- microwaves of a microwave oven
f- the radiations of the mobile phone which are electromagnetic radiations
g- the beam of a laser
h- placing your hand over warm fire
i- emission of alpha particles from decaying uranium
j- the radio waves

If a corn plant was heterozygous for kernel color and seed shape, what would be the genotype of the plant?

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

<em>The genotype of the plant will be PpSs and the phenotype will be purple colour and smooth shaped. </em>

Explanation:

Considering the description in the question, we know that purple colour is dominant over the yellow colour and smooth shape is dominant over the wrinkled shape.

A homozygous trait can be described as a trait which arises due to the same alleles of a gene. A heterozygous trait arises when both the alleles of a gene are different. In such a case, one allele will be dominant over the other one and the phenotype of the dominant allele will be seen in the plant. As purple colour and smooth shape are dominant traits, hence they will be seen in the heterozygous plant.
