The missing box will have genotype Tt

The phenotype will be tasters for PTC as TT, Tt

Explanation:

The taste of PTC is determined by the alleles on the PTC gene. It is a dominant trait. Those who are able to taste PTC have dominant alleles of TT (Homozygous or Tt Heterozygous).

Those having recessive gene tt are said to be non-tasters.

Those with the dominant allele in their PTC gene will find the taste of PTC bitter.

Those with the recessive allele in their PTC gene will find the taste of PTC as tasteless.

Thus genetic make-up of the individual decides their taste. The Phenotype can be either tasters or non-tasters.

TT, Tt (tasters)

tt ( non-tasters)

This follows Mendel's Law of Dominance.

When individuals of the same species are reproductively isolated, genetic differences may accumulate in sufficient number so tha
sdas [7]

Answer:

macroevolution

Explanation:

Macroevolution occurs due to the genetic differences accumulates in the population of the same species which gets reproductively isolated from the older population and got different environments and resources to live.

Macroevolution leads to the creation of a new species over a long period of time because of the genetic difference that occurs due to mutation in the gene in the population who got reproductively isolated. So the new species evolved from the macroevolution.

During the process of photosynthesis,
TEA [102]

Answer:

d. less than 100% of the energy captured from sunlight is transformed into potential energy in the form of a hydrogen ion gradient and then into potential energy in the form of covalent bonds

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is process utilized by plants, several bacteria and protists to convert the light energy to chemical energy. So they utilize the photosynthesis as the powerhouse for the energy production. Heterotrophs like human that cannot synthesize their own food, use this converted form of energy by autotrophs.

During the light reaction of photosynthesis the photons from light are absorbed by photosystem I and II. These photons excites the electrons which flow through the electron transport chain from higher potential to lower potential. These electrons release the energy while moving from higher potential to lower potential which is utilized by H+ pump to pump the H+ to lumen of plastids from stroma and of course not the 100% energy is utilized some of the energy dissipates. . So this process causes the accumulation of high potential H+ ions across the membrane. These H+ ions are utilized for the production of ATP by ATP synthase complex when they flow back to lower potential across the membrane through ATP synthase complex.

The ATP and NADPH produced from light reaction are utilized to combine carbon molecules during dark reaction. The covalent bond is used to combine the carbon molecules and we know that combining carbon molecules stores energy in the form of covalent bond.
