Because plants go through a cycle(the cycle is seed, seedling, plant, flower and tree.) and it takes time for the plant food, water, and nutrients to go though the plant.
Answer:
A. His mitochondria lack the transport protein that moves pyruvate across the outer mitochondrial membrane.
Explanation:
Pyruvate is from the breakdown of carbohydrates such as glucose through glycolysis. Glucose enters the cytosol through specific transporters (the GLUT family) and is processed by one of several pathways depending on cellular requirements. Glycolysis occurs in the cytosol and produces a limited amount of ATP, but the end product is two 3-carbon molecules of pyruvate, which maybe diverted again into many pathways depending on the requirements of the cell. In aerobic conditions, pyruvate is primarily transported into the mitochondrial matrix and converted to acetyl-coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA) and carbon dioxide by the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC).
Initially it was proposed that pyruvate was able to cross the membrane in its undissociated (acid) form but evaluation of its biochemical properties show that it is largely in its ionic form within the cell and should therefore require a transporter.
Transport of pyruvate across the outer mitochondrial membrane appears to be easily accomplished via large non-selective channels such as voltage-dependent anion channels/porin, which enable passive diffusion. Indeed, deficiencies in these channels have been suggested to block pyruvate metabolism
Typically, higher order streams contain MORE water than lower order streams.
Stream ordering is a mean of classifying natural channels in a water shed based on their sizes. The first order stream is the smallest stream and the second order stream is bigger than the first. Thus, the amount of water in the first order stream will be less that that of second order.<span />
Answer:
c. environmental effects.
Explanation:
Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that this scenario is a perfect example of environmental effects. This term refers to the effect that external factors or conditions have on something. Which in this case since the flower color depends on the external conditions (aluminum in soil) then it is an example of environmental effects on the flowers gene expression.
