Answer:

The correct answer would be option D.

Explanation:

Pollen of a plant is a gamete, that contains half of the alleles are required to produce the plant. Pollen fuse with stigma and complete the required alleles or genetic information.

Possible combinations in pollen would be one allele from each trait in every form either dominant or recessive. So ST, St, sT, st. would be the correct possible genetic combination present in a single grain.

Thus, the correct answer is option D.

Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

There are two different traits represented by the term "SsTt". Where "S" is the allele for a dominant trait 1 and "s" is the allele for a recessive trait 1.  Like wise "T" is the allele for a dominant trait 2 and "t" is the allele for recessive trait 2.

In a genetic combination , both the  allels of both the traits will pair up with each other one by one.

i.e "T" will pair up with both "S" and "s" to form "TS" and "Ts" gametes

Similarly "t"will pair up with both "S" and "s" to form "tS" and "ts" gametes

Hence, option D is correct

What glycolysis product is transported into the mitochondria?
docker41 [41]

Answer:

This question lacks options, options are:

A) ATP

B) NADP

C) Pryuvate

D) glucose

E) acetyl-CoA.

The correct answer is C) Pyruvate.

Explanation:

Pyruvate is a very important compound for the cell since it is a key substrate for energy production and glucose synthesis (neo-glycogenesis), that is, pyruvate is the end product of glucose breakdown in glycolysis. Before entering the mitochondria, it can be converted to lactate, through an anaerobic reaction (in the absence or under oxygen supply) of low performance in energy production, when the main pathway is interfered with. It can also be converted to the amino acid alanine. Within the mitochondria, it can be transformed, by pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH), into acetyl-coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA), the entry point (substrate) of the Krebs cycle. In addition, by means of pyruvate carboxylase, it can be transformed into oxalacetate, which constitutes the first step in neoglycogenesis.

In flowering plants, sperm cells are made by the:<br><br> ovary<br> cone<br> spore<br> anther
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

Animal life cycles have meiosis followed immediately by gametogenesis. Gametes are produced directly by meiosis. Male gametes are sperm. Female gametes are eggs or ova.

The plant life cycle has mitosis occurring in spores, produced by meiosis, that germinate into the gametophyte phase. Gametophyte size ranges from three cells (in pollen) to several million (in a "lower plant" such as moss). Alternation of
