Answer:
The student is wrong, spermatozoa are germinal cells and therefore mitochondrial mutations (likewise genomic nuclear mutations) are inherited by offspring
Explanation:
Although the probabilities of inheriting a mutation from a single sperm cell are low, it since an organism produces millions of sperm cells throughout its life span, the mutations in the germinal cells (i.e., sperms and ovules) are inherited by offspring
Answer: The central nervous system (CNS) is the collection of neurons that make up the brain and the spinal cord. The peripheral nervous system (PNS) is the collection of neurons that link the CNS to our skin, muscles, and glands. Neurons are specialized cells, found in the nervous system, which transmit information

Answer:
Hormones communicate between plants and signal to ripen further the release of ethylene helps in this ripening as well.
Explanation:
- When a green banana is placed closely to a brown banana it will ripen more quickly and would turn yellow because the brown banana releases a chemical called ethylene.
- Ethylene is gaseous is nature and is thus, able to affect plants that lie close to it and this is the reason why ethylene is known as a fruit ripening hormone.
- The amount of ethylene increases in fruits as the fruit further ripens and hence, when placed next to a brown banana the green banana will ripen more quickly and turn yellow.
