To test the hypothesis that a particular plant synthesizes storage lipids by using glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (G3P) from photosy
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

Radiolabeled carbon atom in CO2

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants fix the atmospheric CO2 into glucose. The process includes carbon fixation during which RuBisCo enzyme catalyzes the reaction of CO2 and a five-carbon compound called RuBP to form 3-phosphoglycerate (3-PGA). The 3-PGA enters the reduction phase of the Calvin cycle wherein it is reduced into glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. Two molecules of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate make one molecule of glucose.

To test the hypothesis that glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate from photosynthesis is used by plants to synthesize lipids, radiolabeled CO2 must be used. The radiolabeled carbon atom in the CO2 would be fixed in the form of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. If the plant uses glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate as a precursor for lipid synthesis, the synthesized lipid molecules would carry the radiolabeled carbon atom.

Matings between individuals from the two populations of Rhagoletis produce hybrid flies that appear to be healthy and have norma
Mama L [17]
<h2>The correct answer is : C.</h2>

Explanation:

  • According to the question, mating between two populations of Rhagoletis produce hybrid flies.
  • This means that the two population is present in the same habitat or locality, hence they are capable of coming in contact with each other and mate. Hence, the answer cannot be Habitat Isolation.
  • Mating produces hybrid flies. This is possible when the gametes (egg and sperm) of the two different populations are capable of capable of coming close to each other and undergoing fusion (fertilization). Hence, there is no Mechanical Isolation.
  • The zygote formed by the above fertilization is capable of developing into healthy hybrid flies with normal life span. Hence, Pre-zygotic Isolation is absent.
  • But the hybrid flies formed are sterile and not fertile, that is, they are incapable of producing viable gametes which can undergo fertilization and produce a new offspring.Therefore, the eggs laid by the hybrid flies hatch less often. Hence, there is existence of Reduced hybrid fertility.

Which process is responsible for the growth and repair of human tissue ?
muminat

In general, the process responsible for the growth and repair of human tissue is the healing process, which takes place in three phases.

1. inflammatory response. Injured tissues release  chemicals that draw resources to the area, alert the body that damage has occurred and inhibit function to prevent further injury.

2. Repair phase. Once injured area is walled off and debris removed, construction to  replace or repair injured tissue begins. New blood vessels grow in the injured area maximizing transport within tissue.

3. Remodeling phase. Construction of permanent tissue , typically strong scar tissue made from dense network of collagen fibers. 

Looking at it from cell level, the process of mitosis is actually taking place during  healing. 

Mitosis is used for growth and repair and produces diploid cells identical to each other and to the parent cell. 

New cells are needed throughout life. These are for growth and replacement of damaged or worn out tissue. The body obtains such through the process of mitosis.
