Malus sieversii which is indigenous to Kazakhstan. The Romans developed over 23 varieties which they brought with them to England, which then the British brought to the Americas. What process was used to derive all of the varieties of apples we have today?
A. Genomics and DNA sequencing.
B. Gene cloning and by using transgenics.
C. Genetic modification and genetic engineering.
D. Conventional breeding.
E. Inbreeding depression.

Answer:

The correct answer is letter D. Conventional breeding

Explanation:

In conventional genetic improvement a plant is crossed with another of the same species, with no incorporation of genes from another organism into the plant's genome, requiring repeated crossings until reaching the desired improved cultivar. Only in transgenics or genetic engineering are genes from another organism incorporated into the plant's genome.

Answer:

  • <u>Option-</u> (D)

The process which was used to derive all of the varieties of apples that we have today is the conventional form of breeding and that the different methods which are mentioned along with it are more advanced then the conventional form of plants breeding.

Explanation:

  1. There different techniques are used by research workers and scientist to have better results and to have a variety of products for improving there health effects on humans.
  2. So, the conventional form of breeding involves those organisms which can get along easily and survive to produce more productive form of products.

Six thousand reindeer once lived on a remote island in the Bering Sea that was briefly their paradise. In what has become a classic story of wildlife boom and bust, no reindeer live on St. Matthew Island now. Three scientists just looked back at the St. Matthew's reindeer herd and found that an extreme winter probably pushed the stressed animals to their deaths.

How a plant cell and all its organelle functions to help a tree or plant survive, adapt and reproduce?
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

A plant cell is illustrated as a cell that comprises nucleus and organelles enveloped by a rigid and thick cell wall. The functions of the organelles are as follows:  

1. Cell membrane: It safeguards the cell and monitors the molecules leaving and entering the cell.  

2. Cytoplasm: It assists in holding the organelles of the cells in place.  

3. Cell wall: It is the main safeguarding barrier of the plant cells.  

4. Chloroplast: It transforms sunlight into energy by a procedure known as photosynthesis.  

5. Cytoskeleton: It provides structural support for the cell.  

6. Ribosome: It builds protein for the cell to utilize.  

7. Nucleus: It stores the DNA and coordinates the activities of the cell, mainly it acts as brain.  

8. Mitochondria: It convert oxygen and nutrients into energy.  

9. Lysosomes: It dissociate waste into basic components for other organelles to function.  

10. Endoplasmic reticulum: It transports and manufactures chemical components to and from the nucleus.  

11. Peroxisomes: It digests toxic substances in the cell.  

12. Golgi Apparatus: It transforms proteins and fats built in the cell and transports them outside the cell or prepares them for storage.  

13. Plasmodesmata: It allows communication and transport of substances to the nearby cells.  

14. Vacuole: It stores waste components and sustains the level of pH of the cell.  

15. Vesicle: It conducts substances within the cell and help in storing enzyme s.

Which is a major by product of respiration? Choose the correct answer.
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

This question is incomplete as it lacks options, however, it can be answered. The answer is:

CARBON DIOXIDE (CO2)

Explanation:

Cellular respiration is the process by which glucose is broken down in an organism's cell to release energy. Although the process involves series of reactions, however, the general equation is as follows;

C6H12O6 + 6O2 ➡ 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy

Based on the above equation, the inputs are glucose and oxygen while the outputs are carbon dioxide and water. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the major byproduct of the respiration process.
