Answer:

D. Sterility Locus

Explanation:

Angiosperms have several mechanisms to prevent self-pollination due to the advantage of cross-pollination. One of such mechanisms is self-incompatibility genes present on the sterility locus.

These genes determine the germination of the pollen on the stigma. If both the pollen and stigma carry the same allele of the gene present at the sterility locus, the germination of pollen is prevented.  

The sterility locus has multiple alleles and the presence of the same alleles at the same locus in both pollen and stigma prevents the pollen germination.

For example, pollen from S1S2 individuals can not germinate on the stigma with the S1S3 genotype. Here, the pollen does not obtain water as required for germination from the stigma and are unable to germinate.

Describe how the SARS-CoV-2 virus affects your cells.
gogolik [260]

Answer:

SARS- CoV- 2 is a virus that infects human by the oral-respiratory way in which the virus enters the body and these viruses have spikes on their surface made of spike proteins that allow these viruses to bind with the infected cell.

The infected cells have ACE2 receptor that is protein present on the surface of the human cells. Binding allows the structural change in the virus to fuse and enter in the cell where viruses reproduce them selves with the cell with cell system.
