Complete question:
Suppose "A" is a dominant gene for the ability to taste phenylthiocarbamide and "a" is a recessive gene for the inability to taste it. Which couples could possibly have both a child who tastes it and a child who does not?
a. father AA, mother aa
b. father Aa, mother AA
c. father Aa, mother Aa
d. father AA, mother AA
Answer:
c. father Aa, mother Aa
Explanation:
According to the given information, the ability to taste phenylthiocarbamide is a dominant trait and is imparted by the allele "A". This phenotype would be expressed in both homozygous and heterozygous conditions. The non-taster phenotype would be expressed in the homozygous recessive genotypes only.
To have both taster and non-taster children, both the parents should have at least one copy of the recessive allele. Among the given options, the father with genotype Aa and the mother with genotype Aa have the possibility to have both taster and non-taster children.
Aa x Aa= 3/4 taster (1/4 AA and 1/2 Aa): 1/4 non-taster (1/4 aa)
Answer:
Stomata
Explanation:
Photosynthesis is a unique phenomenon which occurs in the Chloroplast of plant cells. It is the way they synthesize their food in form of glucose. However, like every metabolic reaction, photosynthesis requires certain reactants and products.
Photosynthesis combines carbondioxide (CO2) gas and water (H2O) in the presence of sunlight to produce Glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen gas (O2). The gaseous components of this metabolic activity enters (C02) and leaves (O2) the plant via a structure in the leaves called STOMATA.
STOMATA is a pore found in the epidermis layer of plant leaves that aids in the exchange of gases i.e. carbondioxide in, oxygen out during Photosynthesis.
Answer:
A DNA fragment with sticky end sequence TGGCA will bind with another DNA fragment with sticky end sequence ACCGT.
Explanation:
When a DNA strand is separated by the restriction endonuclease, it forms two separate single strands. These strands or cuts are known as sticky ends as they are detached from the complementary pairs.
These cuts of DNA are without complementary pairs and when they find suitable base pair, they get attached to it. These sticky ends are allowed to fix with the complementary base pairs during PCR/ polymerase chain reaction.
They are called sticky ends as they are ready to stick with the complementary base pairs of nucleotides.

See the answer below
Explanation:
Homeostasis refers to the maintenance of relatively constant internal body processes. This is done in two ways
- <em>Negative feedbacks</em>
- <em>Positive feedbacks</em>
Negative feedback returns body processes back to normal after the process has been breached. An example is when the body temperature becomes too high or too low. At too high temperature, vasodilation of the skin's blood vessels occurs and more heat is lost to the surrounding from the skin, sweat is also produced by sweat glands and evaporation of the seat causes cooling. At too low temperature, vasoconstriction occurs leading to the conservation of more heat. The muscles also shake to generate more body heat
Positive feedback ensures that a breach of body processes reaches completion. An example is when a pregnant woman starts laboring. The increase in the amount of oxytocin in the blood leads to the contraction of the uterus consequently leading to the opening of the cervix. More and more oxytocin leads to more frequent and stronger contraction of the uterus untill the baby is born.
