REY [17]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is:

Question: If a horticulturist breeding gardenias succeeds in having a single plant with a particularly desirable set of traits, which of the following would be her most probable and efficient route to establishing a line of such plants?

A) Backtrack through her previous experiments to obtain another plant with the same traits.  

B) Breed this plant with another plant with much weaker traits

C) Clone the plant asexually to produce an identical one

D) Force the plant to self-pollinate to obtain an identical one.

Answer:

C) Clone the plant asexually to produce an identical one

Explanation:

Asexual reproduction is a mode of production of progeny from a single parent. It does not include the fusion of male and female gametes. Therefore, the progeny obtained from the asexual reproduction is genetically identical to the parent plant and is called a clone. One of the methods of asexual reproduction in plants includes vegetative propagation.

To maintain desirable traits in progeny, one must perform asexual reproduction in the single parent plant with such traits. The asexual reproduction would produce the progeny having all the desirable genetic traits as that of the parent plant.

What happened to Bryson's heart beat and breathing rate as he pedaled uphill? Why? Please answer
elixir [45]

I am not sure because there may be more context, but here is what I am guessing the answer is.

As Bryson pedaled uphill both his heartbeat and breathing rate increased. His breathing rate increases to provide the body (more specifically, exercising muscles) with oxygen at a higher rate and his heart rate increases to deliver the oxygen (and glucose) to the respiring muscles more efficiently.

Q? Describe the concentration gradient of carbon dioxide across the cell membrane.
hoa [83]

Answer:

Carbon dioxide goes with the concentration gradient across the cell membrane. It goes in the direction of the concentration gradient, from high concentration to low concentration.

Explanation:

CO_{2} undergoes simple diffusion, which is an example of passive transport. Passive transport diffusion goes with the concentration gradient, while on the other hand, active transport goes against the concentration gradient.

Going with the concentration gradient means that the molecules move from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration. This is what carbon dioxide does.

Going against the concentration gradient means that the molecules move from areas of low concentration to areas of high concentration. This goes against the concentration gradient.

A cell is placed into a hypertonic solution. How does the concentration of water differ in the solution and the cell cytoplasm?
vazorg [7]
I think that the water concentration in the cell is more than the one in the solution, so the water in the cell moves to the solution and then the cell shrinks
