ok so I've done this problem before trust me:
A. bundles of microtubules that separate to opposite poles of a cell - CENTRIOLES
B. prepares protein-packed vesicles for release outside of the cell - VESICLES
C. small storage sacs containing water, food, and waste - VACUOLES
D. rough and smooth organelle that produces protein, steroids, and lipids - ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM
E. tiny sacs at the end of the ER which contain protein - GOLGI COMPLEX
F. chains of protein fibers that provide support and shape - CYTOSKELETON
G. powerful enzymes used to process cellular activity - LYSOSOMES & PEROXISOMES
H. whip-like structures on cells that are used for movement - FLAGELLA
I. produces and assembles proteins - RIBOSOMES
Answer:
A (Genotype)
Explanation:
All organisms possess genetic material which contains information required for certain functions/traits. This genetic material is stored as DNA and contains certain segment that encodes functional products (proteins) called GENE. The make-up of the genes responsible for a particular characteristics in an organism is called the GENOTYPE. Genes occur in variant forms called ALLELES, which are inherited from each parent.
These alleles are responsible for the varying expression of a particular trait e.g. allele T can be responsible for Tallness while the variant form, allele t can be responsible for shortness. In this example, we can see that height is the trait here but the different alleles encode varying expression of it. The combination of the alleles received by both parents, which collectively determines the trait to be expressed is the GENOTYPE.
N.B: The genotype refers to the physically invisible genes not the expressed trait itself, which is the phenotype.
In this case, an allele (gene variant) is responsible for the resistance of Red Blood cells and regulates oxygen carried by them. The phenotype is the resistance that the RBC's possess and its reduced ability to carry oxygen but the combination of alleles responsible for that trait is the GENOTYPE.
Complete question:
Prophase of meiosis I has some important differences from prophase of mitosis. These differences include: ___________BLANK pair, and _________BLANK occurs.
A: chromatids; condensation
B.,chromosomes; separation
C. homologous chromosomes; crossing over
D. homologous chromatids; separation
Answer:
C. homologous chromosomes; crossing over
Explanation:
Prophase I of meiosis and prophase of mitosis are quite distinct with respect to the events occurring in the cells. Prophase-I of meiosis is a relatively long stage. The Zygotene stage of prophase-I includes the pairing of homologous chromosomes. This pairing is mediated by synaptonemal complex and the process is called synapsis. The paired chromosomes undergo the process of crossing over during the pachytene stage of prophase-I. In crossing over, the non-sister chromatids of the bivalents exchange some genetic material between them. The events of synapsis and crossing over do not occur during prophase of mitosis.
Answer:
Photosynthesis relies on sun, water, and CO2 for it to make food. When there are lower levels of either, the organism carrying out photosynthesis can't make as much glucose and oxygen. This in turn harms the organism.
