The primary function of the chloroplasts in a plant is to convert light
from the sun into glucose and energy in a process that is known as
photosynthesis. This energy is then used by the plant cells for
incredibly important functions such as growth and repair, so the chloroplasts are amongst the most necessary parts of any plant.
Answer:
In mendelian inheritance, the alleles for a gene show normal dominant-recessive relationship. Chromosomes also show crossover due to which new random combination of traits is possible in the offspring. This crossover takes place between homologous chromosomes during meiosis I.
Organellar DNA like the ones present in mitochondria and chloroplast do not follow mendelian inheritance because unlike nuclear chromosomes they do not have cross over events. There is no orderly segregation of alleles during meiosis. Traits controlled by them are usually inherited as it is and usually it is from the maternal parent because paternal gamete like sperm does not contain mitochondria.
Answer:
<h2>Its true!!</h2>
Explanation:
Actually the haemoglobin molecule consists of 2 parts, the haem which is a prosthetic group and the other globin which is a protein. So the haemoglobin as is a protein so, is arranged in quaternary structure of protein which contains 4 subunits. The subunits depend upon the organism whose haemoglobin is being talked about. So the normal haemoglobin found in red blood cells contains 2 alpha subunits + 2 beta subunits. At the centre of each subunit there is the haem part attached. To the centre of haem the Fe3+ ion are present which actually attaches to 1 Oxygen molecule. So as 4 subunits are present and each subunit has 1 Fe3+ ion, so total 4 Oxygen molecules can bind to the 1 Hb molecule!!
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Co-dominance is when both alleles combine to form an intermediate phenotype. It's like crossing a red and white flower and getting a pink flower.
