Answer: Starch

Explanation:

The compound that the plants make is carbohydrates which is then converted into starch to get stored in the plant body.

Starch is also a form of glucose which is easy to get stored. The process by which the autotrophs make food is photosynthesis.

The end product of this process is glucose which is used by the plants in their various types of metabolic processes.

The leftover glucose is converted into starch and stored in this form only.

What factor slows transcription?

Leya [2.2K]

Repressor slows down transcription.

RNA Polymerase enzyme transcribes mRNA from DNA.

Explanation:

Promoters are the 100 to 900 bps long sequence of DNA, that helps in the initiation of transcription. The transcription gets slow down as repressor bind to the promoter region hampering the attachment of RNA Polymerase enzyme which is responsible for transcription.

The process of transcription is the conversion of DNA into mRNA as told in the central dogma of molecular biology. Enzyme responsible for transcription is RNA polymerase. It is the first phase of gene expression, where DNA strand is copied into mRNA called a primary transcript.

Explain mendel's experiment with peas on inheritence of characters considering only one visible contrasting character.

m_a_m_a [10]

➜ Mendel conducted breeding experiments with garden peas:

[i] He studied plants (pure) of a tall/short varities.

[ii] He crossed them and obtained F1 progeny.

[iii] He found that F1 progeny was all tall plants.

[iv] He selfed the (hybrid) plants if F1 progeny.

[v] He found that in F2 progeny there were tall as well as short plants.

[vi] The three quarter plants were tall and one quarter was short.

(or any other contrasting character may be taken).
