An allele is a variation of a gene that can be expressed as a phenotype.

Explanation:

Genes are the specific sequences of DNA that code for a particular protein in organisms. When the fertilization occurs each parent contributes one chromosome which is homologous this means that both will have genes on the particular loci. The alleles of the particular genes will come together to express the trait.

Allele is an entity of gene which determines how the gene will express the particular trait like tall, short, round, wrinkle etc. It can be said that allele determines the phenotypic trait of a particular gene.

Eddie is authoring a book for kids on plants. What point should he include in his book?
Pavlova-9 [17]

The correct answer is D. Plants are called autotrophs

Explanation:

If Eddie is authoring a book for kids on plants, the most important is to include key and accurate information about these living organisms such as their role in ecosystems and the way these obtain energy. In this context, the point Eddie needs to include is that plants are autotrophs, which means plants produce energy. This is possible through a process known as photosynthesis. that involves plants using water, sunlight, and carbon dioxide to synthesize energy. Also, this makes plants different from other organisms that need to consume others to obtain energy and are called heterotrophs. Thus, point D is the correct option because this describes a key feature of plants; also, other points are inaccurate.

prohojiy [21]
Both animal and plant cells undergo respiration. Although this respiration goes toward different activities (photosynthesis for plants and muscular respiration for animals), both processes intake oxygen and get rid of carbon dioxide as a waste product.
