A gardener is experimenting with one of her African violet plants. This plant produces large, deeply colored flowers. She shows

you two offspring from the plant. The first produces small, lightly colored flowers, while the second produces large, deeply-colored flowers. Which offspring was produced with vegetative reproduction? Which one was produced with sexual reproduction?

Answer:

The offspring with large, deeply colored flowers is produced from vegetative reproduction which the offspring with small, lightly colored flowers is produced from sexual reproduction.

Explanation:

Reproduction of a plant is the propagation of that plant and it occurs via the sexual or asexual means. The asexual means also called vegetative reproduction involves only one parents and the resulting offspring grows from a part of this parent. Sexual reproduction involves the union of sex cells from two parents (male and female).

In asexual or vegetative reproduction, the offsprings are genetically identical to the parent they emanate from while in sexual reproduction, the offsprings can be genetically different due to the process of recombination that occurs in gametes during their formation (meiosis). This allows for genetic variation among the offsprings.

Therefore, the offspring that resembles the parent i.e. large and deeply colored was likely produced by the vegetative or asexual means of reproduction while the offspring that exhibited a different characteristics from the parent was produced from sexual reproduction.

Answer: The differences in the assembly and organization of the monomers of these two polymers result in different chemical properties.

Explanation:

Starch and Cellulose flare both polysaccharides which are constructed from the same monomer called glucose. The functions they provide in plants are different which includes the following:

- STARCH is used by plants for energy storage because unlike Cellulose, it's formed from glucose units( oriented in the same direction) connected by alpha linkages which can form compact structures that can easily be broken down.

- Cellulose provides structural support for plant cell wall because unlike Starch, it's formed from glucose units( which rotates 180 degrees around the axis of the polymer backbone chain) connected by beta linkages. This pattern gives Cellulose it's rigid features as is allows for hydrogen bonding between two molecules of Cellulose.

Therefore the statement that best describes why starch and cellulose provide different functions in plants is that (The differences in the assembly and organization of the monomers of these two polymers result in different chemical properties).

Which statement is TRUE?
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

All living organisms ranging from unicellular prokaryotes to multicellular eukaryotes contain genetic material (DNA). This genetic material is usually found on structures called CHROMOSOMES. Although, the chromosomes are contained in the genome of all living organisms, there are differences.

The genetic material of the bacteria (a typical prokaryote) is a single DNA molecule that makes up its single circular chromosomal material, unlike in eukaryotes that contains double-stranded DNA molecules on linear chromosomes. This single circular chromosome of bacteria is found naked in a region of their cell called NUCLEOID, as they do not possess a membrane-bound nucleus that houses it (a unique characteristics of eukaryotes).

The mitochondrial and Chloroplast DNA mentioned in the other options are all components of eukaryotic cells. Bacteria, as a prokaryote does not contain this organnelles. Hence, they are not single replica.
