Answer:
Ribosomes are found 'free' in the cytoplasm or bound to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to form rough ER.
Explanation:
In a mammalian cell there can be as many as 10 million ribosomes. Several ribosomes can be attached to the same mRNA strand, this structure is called a polysome.
Answer:
It's the nature vs nurture situation. While the genetics of a person does control the physical traits he/she may develop, the environment also has a major role to play here. For instance, the person may have the genes for developing a tall height. If, however, that person is not provided with the right kind of nutrition and the right time, it is very likely that he/she will not grow as tall as they had the potential for. Similar explanation for non-physical traits.
This is not an 'either/or' type of argument. Genetics and the environment have a collective impact in shaping the person into who they are and while the balance may shift to one side or the other in certain cases, it does not cancel out or negate the other's effect.
Hope that answers the question, have a great day!
Answer:
The basic function of the light reactions of photosynthesis is the conversion of solar energy to chemical energy.
Explanation:
In photosynthesis, the light energy is captured by chlorophyll pigment which is present in the thylakoid membrane. Then this light energy is used split water which releases the electron that enters the electron transport chain. Then electrons move through several electron carriers and helps to generates NADPH and ATP.
These NADPH and ATP are used in the Calvin cycle to fix the carbon into carbohydrates like glucose. Glucose molecules is then used by the plant to get energy source and to make structural components like cell wall. Therefore during photosynthesis solar energy is converted into chemical energy like glucose.
Explanation:
During the process of prophase I, the nuclear envelope containing chromosomes has only partly broken down homologous chromosomes are joined together by proteins and a complex or pairing call synapsis- corresponding genes on sister chromatids are aligned precisely.
The syanapsis allows for crossing over which is the exchange of segments of chromosome, between non-sister homologous or similar chromatids crossing over happens at chiasmata, the point where non-sister chromosomes are joined.
Further Explanation:
All the genetic information within the eukaryotic cell is stored within the nucleus as helical DNA. This DNA is tightly wound around histones as chromosomes. In meiosis, the number of chromosomes (2n) is halved to 23 chromosomes (haploid number)through meiotic divisions, producing 4 haploid (n) germ cells or gametes (sperm or eggs), each containing half the number of chromosomes as its parent cell.
In Meiosis I
- homologs pair off into bivalents
- At crossing over: the exchange of segments of chromosome, between non-sister homologous or similar chromatids crossing over happens at chiasmata, the point where non-sister chromosomes are joined in prophase I forming bivalents; tetrads are formed.
- Spindle fibers from centrioles join sister chromatids together at their centromeres in metaphase I, pulling them to the equator of the cell;
- then, in anaphase I, while joined, they are pulled to opposite sides of the cell; the cell body splits and the nuclear envelope reforms in telophase I
In Meiosis II...
- Later, in prophase II, the nuclear envelope disintegrates and mitotic spindle fibers are formed
- independent assortment occurs. in metaphase II of meiosis: spindle fibers attach to centromeres, chromatids align independently at the equator. Genes segregate independently into new combinations as sister chromatids are pulled apart by their centromeres in anaphase II
- in telophase II the cells' nuclei and membrane are then formed with each containing the haploid number (n)
- Following the formation of gametes in the last stage, randomized fertilization occurs in sexual reproduction sperm cells fertilize an ovum to form a zygote. This occurs randomly by chance, to result in a complete set of chromosomes 2n, that is a novel combination of half each parent's number of chromosomes
