Answer:

Option C,  traits can be dominant or recessive, and the recessive traits were obscured by the dominant ones in the F1.

Explanation:

Complete question-

Mendel accounted for the observation that traits which had disappeared in the F1 generation reappeared in the F2 generation by proposing that

Select one:

a. new mutations were frequently generated in the F2 progeny, "reinventing" traits that had been lost in the F1.

b. the mechanism controlling the appearance of traits was different between the F1 and the F2 plants.

c. traits can be dominant or recessive, and the recessive traits were obscured by the dominant ones in the F1.

d. the traits were lost in the F1 due to dominance of the parental traits.

e. members of the F1 generation had only one allele for each trait, but members of the F2 had two alleles for each trait.

Solution -

In the Mendel’s experiment, some traits which were absent in the F1 generation appeared in the second generation cross. By this he concluded, that the traits exressed in the F1 generation were dominant and hence they capped the expression of traits associated witl recessive allele. He classified the traits in F2 generation as recessive, because these traits can occur only when they are in pair i.e they form individuals with homozygous recessive genotype.  

For instance – If “R” is allele for dominant red color trait and “r” is the allele for recessive white color trait, then the cross between true breeding red flowers and white flowers will produce following offspring  

RR * rr

Rr, Rr, Rr, Rr

Thus, in F1 generation all the offspring are heterozygous red

F2 generation-  

Rr * Rr

RR, Rr, Rr, rr

The recessive trait of white colored flower reappears in second generation.

Hence, option C is correct

The correct answer is option C, that is, in the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast.  

Chlorophyll is situated in a clustered form in the thylakoid membrane of the organelles known as chloroplasts. Inside the thylakoid membrane, the chlorophyll molecule is enclosed by the proteins, which forms the complexes known as photosystems that mediate the light energy via the chlorophyll.

explain why a continuous increase in carbon dioxide levels will not cause the rate of photosynthesis to increase continuously?​
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

An increase in the amount of CO2 well increase the rate of photosynthesis, Carbon dioxide concentration will directly affect the rate of photosynthesis as it is used in the photosynthesis reaction.Increased amount of CO2 will increase the rate of photosynthesis to a certain limit, after which a further increase in its amount will no longer increase the rate any further. This is when the other factors necessary for photosynthesis, such as light, become "limiting reactants"; that is, those other factors also need to increase to bring about a further increase in the rate.

six molecules of water plus six molecules of carbon dioxide produce one molecule of sugar plus six molecules of oxygen

An increase in the amount of water leads to the increase in the amount of photosynthesis

The amount of water available to the plant will affect the rate of photosynthesis. If the plant does not have enough water, the plant's stomata will shut and the plant will be deprived of CO², and thus lower photosynthesis rate.

An increase in the amount of light well increase the amount of photosynthesis, if the light intensity increases the rate of the reaction will increase at a proportional rate until a certain level is reached, the rate of increases will then go down.

Other factors affecting the rate of photosynthesis :

1. Temperature

2. The availability of nutrients
