SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

b.the recipe because it can be passed on to all relatives

Explanation:

A crooked nose is a genetic trait and can be passed to the progeny via genes only. Sexually reproducing organisms such as humans experience segregation of traits during gamete formation. Therefore, crooked nose inheritance is a chance factor regulated by the inheritance of genes and the segregation of alleles. On the other hand, a recipe for chocolate chip cookies can be shared with all the relatives and other individuals of the population by any means without any conditions. Therefore, a recipe will spread more quickly through the population.

This cell city represents plant cell due to the presence of chloroplast.

<h3>What represents each part of the city?</h3>

In the cell city, the power plant represents mitochondria due to its production of energy. The storage tanks represent vacuoles because in cells in vacuoles materials are stored.

The transport company represents Golgi apparatus which also transport material within the cell, city hall represents nucleus because all the activities can be controlled from here.

The waste disposal plant represents Lysosomes because it removes waste. The construction site represents Ribosomes and Endoplasm Reticulum where proteins are produced. The food processing company represents Chloroplasts.

"Cell City" represent an plant cell because it has chloroplast which is only present in plant cell.
