In a diploid individual, one chromosome carries A and B genes, and the homologous chromosome carries different forms (alleles) o
Helen [10]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

This involves a dihybrid inheritance I.e. two genes are being passed on. During meiosis, specifically, the Prophase stage, homologous chromosomes (similar but non-identical chromosomes received from each parent) line side by side. According to the question, one chromosome contains A and B alleles and its homologue, received by the other parent carries a and b alleles. This means that the diploid individual has a genotype AaBb for that gene.

According to Mendel's law of independent assortment, the alleles separate independently of one another into gametes. I.e. allele A and a separates into the gametes without affecting alleles B and b of the other gene.

Crossing-over, which is the exchange of chromosomal segment occurs between the two homologues. Hence, the exchange of chromosomal segments containing alleles in the individual will possibly produce four gametes with the genotypes: AB, Ab, aB, ab.

Why do we have life when there's death, and when we die it causes pain to others?
adell [148]
Life is a special thing. You have your time and when it is decided that you will pass on then you go to a special place un-known to our world. Sometimes it your death is accidental and sometimes it's because your time is up. But others have to accept when someone passes on because they should know, that there lived one is in great hands.

Why are mitochondria bigger in animal cells
Greeley [361]
When you think about the main purpose of mitochondira (to produce energy; an easy idea how to remember the function of mitochondria in our bodies is to imagine them as energy factories or power plants) it becomes easy to understand why.

Animals (including us) move a lot more compared to plants. For movement you need energy and energy needs to be produced in our bodies in order for us to be able to move. Therefore, we have mitochondria that are bigger. Not only that, animal cells usually also have more mitochondria. All of this is probably done to keep up with the increased energy demands that moving organisms have.

Photosynthesis is a means of converting light energy to chemical energy. Explain what this statement means.
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

photosynthesis, the process by which green plants and certain

other organisms transform light energy into chemical energy .

During photosynthesis in green plants, light energy is captured

and used to convert water, carbon dioxide, and minerals into

oxygen and energy-rich organic compounds.

also

During the process of photosynthesis, light penetrates the

cell and passes into the chloroplast. The light energy is

intercepted by chlorophyll molecules on the granal stacks.

Some of the light energy is converted to chemical energy.

During this process, a phosphate is added to a molecule to

cause the formation of ATP(Adenosine triphosphate)
