Biology

Cerrena [4.2K]2 years ago
6 0
A basic definition of an ionic compound is that they are molecules that consist of charged ions. These ions have opposite (both negative and positive) charges. On the other hand, covalent compounds are non-metals which are bound together, and consist of two electrons that are shared between two atoms.

Color in McIver beetles is determined by two alleles at one gene locus. McIver beetles must have a heterzygous genotype (genotyp
seraphim [82]

Answer: The frequency of brown beetles is 0.32.

Explanation: The frequency of A1 allele is 0.8. As p+q=1, or the sum of dominant and recessive frequencies equals 1 or 100%:

1 - 0.8 = 0.2

In Hardy-Weinberg principle,

p^{2} + 2pq + q^{2} = 1

2pq represents the frequency of heterozygote individuals, so:

genotype A1A2 = 2*0.8*0.2 = 0.32.

Thus, the frequency of brown beetles (A1A2) in the population is 0.32.

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Golgi apparatus

Explanation:

Once the protein products are packaged in the endoplasmic reticulum into vesicles that fuse to the Golgi apparatus, these protein products are modified by enzymes. These changes are called post-translational modifications and include the addition of carbohydrates, lipids or some other functional groups. All these modifications are key for protein functionality. After this process is concluded, functional proteins are packaged into vesicles and released to their final destination inside or outside the cell.

Which of the following statements about carotenoids is NOT true? Carotenoids include red, orange, and yellow pigments. Carotenoi
kvv77 [185]

       The right answer to this question is option D. Carotenoids are categorized into two major divisions: carotenes and beta carotenes

       First, let's check option A, it says that the carotenoids include red, orange and yellow pigments, that's true, we can check that on lab for example, a vegetable that can be mentioned here are carrots, it has lots of this and it's very healthy too, and remember, there isn't a single animal that can produce carotenoids, so they need to grab it from nature.

       The second option, B. says that sometimes carotenoids are sometimes called as acessory pigments, that's true too, some studies consider them acessory pigments, so, they're not alone there, there are different kinds of pigments that can be on that plant, and they're also very important for the animals. Option C refers to beta carotene as the most abundant carotene in plants, that's true too, we can also find other kinds of carotenoids on plants, but this one as it's seen in lab, is the most common one. The last one, D, isn't true, the two major divisions are: Xanthophylls and Carotenoids, beta carotenoids are a type of carotenoids, not a different group.
