A new experimental pesticide is being tested by a large agricultural chemical company. An unfortunate side effect in plants trea

ted with this new product is a decrease in ATP production in the chloroplasts. (Interestingly, production of ATP in the mitochondria is unaffected.) Which of the answer choices would you expect to be directly affected by the new pesticide?A. the synthesis of triose phosphates from 3-phosphoglycerateB. the transport of electrons along the photosynthetic electron transport chainC. the carboxylation of RuBP by rubiscoD. the oxidation of RuBP by rubisco

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-A

Explanation:

The pesticide tested in the given question is thought to affect the production of ATP which slows down the metabolism of the plant and ultimately death of the plant.

Since the pesticide is not involved in inhibiting the process taking place in mitochondria, therefore, is thought to have affected the process outside the mitochondria of respiration that is in the cytosol.

The stage of respiration taking place in the cytosol is glycolysis. The conversion of  3-phosphoglycerate to triose phosphates results in the formation of ATP and is affected.

Thus, option-A is the correct answer.

Answer:

Option (A).

Explanation:

Pesticides are the chemicals used to kill the pests in the agricultural field. The pesticides includes the harmful chemicals that sometimes kill the non target organisms as well.

The new pesticide that has been discovered decreases the ATP production in chloroplast. The use of 3 phosphoglycerate will be effective in this case. The conversion of 3 phosphoglycerate into the triose will result in increase in ATP production in chloroplast.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A).

Answer:

Part A- Linear duplicated chromosomes

Part B-Anaphase

Explanation:

Sister chromatids are duplicated copies of a single chromosome that are attached to each other and are identical. They are attached at the centromere. The sister chromatids which are linear separate at the centromere and migrate to the opposite poles.

During anaphase, the sister chromatids of each chromosome separate at the centromere with each moving towards the opposite pole. The chromatids are pulled by the shortening of the spindle fibres. Mitochondria congregate around the spindle during this movement.

What characteristics do all good sources of animal fossils have in common?
Maksim231197 [3]

Explanation:

Fossils are the preserved remains of organisms found in rock layers. To be desired as a material worthy of preservation, animals must posses the following characteristics:

  • Presence of hard parts: exoskeleton and endoskeleton must be strong enough to withstand decomposition before preservation.
  • Animals with small sizes are generally more favored for preservation.
  • Anoxic environments lacking high amount of oxygen.

Masja [62]

Answer:

The second graph attached in the answer shows the survivorship of whales.

<span>
</span>

The whales follow the K-strategy of reproduction. Therefore, they will typically have a high survivorship. <span>K-strategy reproduction is the production of few offspring, but heavy investment in those offspring to ensure a better chance of survival. Humans for example, usually have one baby at a time, with a long gestation, and a long period of nursing babies and caring for children.</span>
