Answer:

C: If crossed with another heterozygous plant, the majority of progeny will have the dominant flower color.

Explanation:

Assuming the gene is represented an allele A, purple colour can be AA or Aa while white colour will be aa.

If a heterozygous plant Aa is crossed with another heterozygous Aa, the genotype of the progeny will be AA, Aa, Aa and aa.

Since allele A is dominant over a, it thus means that the phenotype of the progeny will be 3 purple and 1 white flowered plant.

<em>Hence, the majority of the progeny will have the dominant (75%) flower colour.</em>

The correct option is C.

Why are there more stomata in the bottom of leaves
Jobisdone [24]

Stomata play an important role in photosynthesis as they allow the plant to absorb carbon dioxide from the environment. In exchange, stomata allow oxygen, which is a waste product of photosynthesis, to be released. In the process, water vapor is also lost as the internal parts of the leaves are exposed. To reduce exposure, stomata are found on the underside of the leaves. They are protected from the sun as excessive heat can increase the rate of water vapor leaving and thus wither the plant. Stomata also have guard cells around the epidermis that close when too much water is being lost.

timurjin [86]

Answer:

The insulin must be administered.

Explanation:

In the given question the Mary has the acidosis that is the level of pH in the blood have dropped below 7.  

It is also provided that the smell of her breath is fruity due to the accumulation of fruity smell molecules called ketones which could be the result of the ketosis. Ketosis occurs when the cellular respiration uses fat as a substrate instead of the carbohydrate. This shows Mary has a condition called ketoacidosis.

The increased level of the glucose in the blood shows that the glucose is not absorbed by the cell which involves the insulin therefore the doctor should administer the insulin drug to the patient.

Thus, insulin is the correct answer.

Select the correct answer. An object is acted upon by a force of 22 newtons to the right and a force of 13 newtons to the left.
lana [24]

Answer:The net force is the sum of all the forces acted upon an object. The direction of force depends on which side you are taking as a positive and negative force. If the force of 22 newtons is positive and the force of 13 newtons is negative, they are actng on the object on different directions, thus in order to get the net force, we just sum them up.

newtons

The net force is +9 Newtons.
