The answer is (1)


In the cell of the body, oxygen is used in a process that releases energy. Oxygen is used in the last and most important step in cellular respiration namely the electron transport chain.

In this process electrons are passed from one electron carrier to another and as they are  thus transferred, energy is released. Toward the final step, electrons are transferred  to oxygen which is the final acceptor of the electrons. By the time the process ends, 34 ATP molecules are produced.

Recently, genes have been indentified in angiosperms that are important in preventing pollen from germinating or growing into th
Marizza181 [45]

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.

Can someone check these?
ivann1987 [24]

I'm pretty sure you got them all right. The last one just sounds sort of specific though as Stars are made of Plasma but they don't have heat from the atmosphere. But if you're speaking of only here on Earth then it's correct.
