Trace the path of a labeled carbon atom through the biological processes of photosynthesis and respiration. The atom will start

its journey inside a carbon dioxide molecule and it will end in the air inside a new carbon dioxide molecule. Your mission is to use your knowledge of photosynthesis and respiration to explain what happens to the carbon atom in these processes.

Cellular respiration and photosynthesis are reverse and complement reactions to each other.

In photosynthesis, carbon dioxide and water yield glucose and oxygen:
CO₂ + H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + O₂

In the opposite reaction - cellular respiration, glucose and oxygen yield water and carbon dioxide:
C₆H₁₂O₆ + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O

A plant is homozygous for flower color. Its flowers are pink.
Mashutka [201]

The correct answer is A. Flower color is a recessive trait.

The recessive gene does not show its effect in heterozygous condition according to Mendel’s law of dominance. Thus, in heterozygous condition, dominant gene determines the phenotype for a trait. In this question a plant is homozygous for flower color. This indicates that pink flower determining gene can only be expressed in homozygous condition. Therefore, flower color is a recessive trait.

S_A_V [24]

Answer:

In the given case, it can be concluded that very less amount of telomerase is being produced.

Explanation:

Terminal transferase or telomerase refers to a ribonucleoprotein that supplements a telomere repeat sequence to the 3 prime terminals of telomeres. A telomere is present at each terminal of the chromosomes found in the majority of eukaryotes. It helps in safeguarding the terminals of the chromosomes from destruction or from getting combined with the adjacent chromosomes.  

Telomerase has its own RNA molecule and works as a reverse transcriptase enzyme. Generally, telomerase is found active in gametes, in stem cells, and in the majority of cancer cells, however, it is generally present in low concentration or is absent in the majority of somatic cells. Thus, the decrease in the ends of the chromosomes suggests that the production of telomerase is taking place at low levels.
