Answer: option D
In generalized transduction, any DNA can be moved while in specialized transduction certain DNA from the phage site is moved.
Explanation:
Transduction is the process where foreign DNA is added to a cell by a virus or viral vector.
Transduction is divided into two, generalized and specialized.
Generalized transduction is a process where any DNA can be transferred by the virus in the cell while specialized transduction is a process where a fragment of the DNA near the phage site can be moved.
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.
The Sun is the basic source of energy for the Earth which affect the growth of all living things and the Sun also affect the all the biochemical processes. We know that the amount of radiation from the Sun changes day by day due to the distance of the Earth from the Sun. The rate of Solar energy affects the Earth in two ways.
The rate of solar heating which directly affects the processes like the evaporation and condensation and indirectly it affects the cloud forming processes of the Earth. The rate at which the solar energy reaches the Earth is called as the Total Solar Irradiance or TSI. This affects the climate of the Earth in many ways.
The change in rate of cloud formation increases of decreases with the distance of the Sun from Earth and hence a warm, moderate or cold climate is formed
It also affects the formation of winds due to the low or high pressure in the water bodies and hence affect the climate in the coastal areas.
The tropical areas have hot and humid climate due to the equator which has maximum exposure to the Sun’s heat.
Hence, the Sun is one primary feature that affects the climate in the Earth.
Answer:
D. Meiosis forms four cells all with different genetic material
Explanation:
They are haploid cells and each cell only had one set of chromosomes. Meiosis results in variation.
