To confirm the above hypothesis, Maria should perform an experiment to prove that xylem is responsible for the transport of coloured water through the plant. This is called the ascent of sap.
A suitable plant having a tender, semitransparent stem should be selected. The root system of the plant should be cut off and the twig has to be placed half-immersed in a coloured solution of water for about one hour. Later, when the plant is observed, parallely running streaks of coloured water can be seen through the semitransparent stem and other parts of the plant indicating that the xylem is involved in the upward movement of water.
Answer:
According to the diagram shown, the section of DNA used to make the mRNA strand is known as a gene (option 2).
Explanation:
Gene consists of a DNA fragment that codes for the synthesis of a specific protein that defines the structural or functional trait of a living being.
When DNA is transcribed into mRNA, each section of transcribed DNA is part of a gene. The information travels to ribosomes in the cytoplasm where protein synthesis occurs.
A complete DNA molecule forms a chromosome, which contains the genes with information to define specific traits of a species.
The other options are not correct because:
<em> 1.Carbohydrate is a biomolecule that is not involved in the genetic process.
</em>
<em> 3. Ribosome is where protein synthesis occurs.
</em>
<em> 4. Chromosome is the complete DNA molecule.</em>
Answer:
During METAPHASE the chromosomes line up along the equatorial plate.
Answer:DNA is shown to be the genetic material in bacteria and some phages.
DNA is shown to be present in mitochondria, chloroplasts and nucleus, where genetic function is performed
Specific genes can be isolated and spliced into bacterial DNA, which can be inserted into a bacterial cell, and then its genetic expression is monitored.
DNA and RNA are found to be the only macromolecules in eukaryotes that consist of a set of subunits which can combine in unique sequence
Explanation:
1. Lipds is another macro molecule with different subnits of fatty acids and glycerol,therefore the option ( DNA is found to be the only macro molecule in Eukaryotas that has different sub units) is WRONG.
2 The correlation of action and absorption spectra varies with different organisms DNA. e..g in viral cells there is a wide difference between the absorption and action spectra, that is no correlation, while some bacterial cells showed correlations. The option(For DNA, content in various cell types action and absorption spectra of ultraviolet light are correlated IS WRONG.
