Which of the following is not a major function of the roots?
Finger [1]
<span>The correct answer is A. Photosynthesis. To conduct photosynthesis, you need chloroplasts and these are found in the leaves which is why the leaves are green. Roots don't have them and they aren't exposed to the sun and don't create energy using photosynthesis. They do however absorb nutrients from the soil.</span>

The expression of a trait is directly dependent on the
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer: B

Explanation:

The question wants to know what the expression is directly dependent on.

The sequence of genetic expression goes like this:

  DNA -> RNA -> protein

If we want to know the root cause of expression, we must look at the DNA, not the RNA or protein, because DNA determines the RNA and protein expression.

 

The  Shape of subunits in DNA -> Sequence of bases coded for by the ribosome with RNA -> Arrangement of amino acids in the protein synthesized.

Why not C: Number of chromosomes present isn't a factor, because most humans, barring those with a genetic disorder, have 23.

In what ways do cells use energy
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Image result for In what ways do cells use energy

Cells do not use the energy from oxidation reactions as soon as it is released. Instead, they convert it into small, energy-rich molecules such as ATP and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH), which can be used throughout the cell to power metabolism and construct new cellular components.

In guinea pigs the allele for black fur (B) is dominant over the allele for brown fur (b), and the allele for short fur (F) is d
galben [10]

Answer:

100%

Explanation:

This question involves two genes in guinea pigs; one coding for fur color and the other for fur length. The alleles of black fur (B) and short fur (F) is dominant over the alleles for brown fur (b) and long fur (f).

In a cross between two offsprings with genotypes: BBFF x bbff, the following gametes will be produced by each parent:

BBFF - BF, BF, BF, and BF

bbff - bf, bf, bf, bf

Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), one will notice that all of the offsprings will have the genotype: BbFf i.e all or 100% of the offsprings are heterozygous for both of the genes or traits.
