Answer:

a. leaves that close when touched.

Explanation:

Venus flytrap is an insectivorous plant. Its scientific name is Dionaea muscipula. It has a specialised system by which it traps and kills insects. Venus flytrap is an autotroph (makes its own food through photosynthesis), but it absorbs nitrogen and phosphorous from insects because the soil in which it grows lack these elements. It has steel-trap shaped leaves which secrete sweet-smelling nectar and when insects land on its leaves for the nectar insects get trapped.

swat32

Answer:

Option-D

Explanation:

Casparian strips are the strips or band composed of a hydrophobic substance called the suberin which forms the ring-like structure in the endodermis of the vascular plants.

The Casparian strips are present around the vascular bundles in the endodermis to allow the uptake of the selective nutrients as the substance has to pass through the cell membrane before it enters the centre of the root or stele or vascular bundles.

The Casparian strips allow the movement of a substance through symplast mode only, therefore, is ensures the substance to pass through the cell membrane.

Thus, Option-D is correct.

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

B) The completely-plated phenotype is controlled by a dominant allele of a single gene.

Explanation:

<em>The results from the breeding experiment showed that the completely-plated phenotype is controlled by a dominant allele of a single gene because it followed Mendelian pattern of inheritance.</em>

According to Mendel, in a dominant/recessive gene situation, the recessive gene do not manifest physically in F1 generation and at F2, the phenotypic  ratio of dominant to recessive gene is usually 3:1.

For example, assuming the completely-plated gene is represented by P and the alternate form (low-plated) by p.

At F1:    PP   x   pp

Progeny: all Pp, completely-plated stickleback in appearance.

At F2:     Pp   x   Pp

Progeny: PP, Pp, Pp, and pp

3/4 of the progeny have completely-plated appearance while 1/4 have low-plated appearance. The ratio of completely-plated to low-plated is 3:1.

The correct option is B.

What process happens before both mitosis and meiosis?
levacccp [35]

Answer:

Interphase

Explanation:

Before dividing, the cell must go through interphase. There are three parts of interphase : G1 where the cell grows, S where DNA is copied, and G2 where the cell prepares for division. Interphase is the longest phase because the cell needs to grow.

Before mitosis, interphase happens and interphase also happens before meiosis I. it does not happen before mitosis II though
