Answer:
variegated female x green male
Explanation:
The four o'clock (<em>Mirabilis jalapa</em>) plant is a common ornamental species of <em>Mirabilis</em> (clade Angiosperms, flowering plants) whose leaf pigmentation is a well-known case of maternal inheritance. Moreover, chloroplasts are organelles that have their own genome which follows a maternal inheritance pattern in the majority of plant and animal species because they are contained in the cytoplasm (i.e., chloroplast DNA is inherited only from the mother because only the maternal cytoplasm persists after fertilization). Thus, chloroplast DNA has an inheritance pattern that challenges Mendel's Laws of inheritance (i.e., distinct from nuclear DNA). In the case of the four o'clock plant, the genes responsible for leaf color are located in the chloroplast genome and therefore these genes are transmitted from the female parent to the progeny. In this case, the leaf variegation is caused by two different types of chloroplasts that are inherited from the mother: normal green chloroplasts and defective chloroplasts (without chlorophyll pigment).
Answer:
Gaseous exchange
Explanation:
In terrestrial plants, gaseous exchange occurs mainly in leaves and to a lesser extent in the roots and stems. In leaves, the structures involved in gaseous exchange are stomata and spongy mesophyll tissues.
The stoma comprises of a stomatal pore and two specialized guard cells. The guard cells are structurally adapted by having chloroplasts, thicker, inelastic inner walls and thinner and elastic outer walls.
The stomata mostly opens during the day. They open when the guard cells are turgid.When the guard cells are flaccid, the thinner outer wall shrinks. The inner thicker walls curvature reduces causing the stomata to close.
The bread molds, which are the most advanced of the primitive fungi, produce only aplanospores (nonmotile spores) in their sporangia. Fungi can produce spores on somatic hyphae or on special spore-producing hyphae, which are arranged into structures called fruiting bodies.
Answer:
Please look at the explanation section
Explanation:
In the oxidative phase of the pentose phosphate pathway, NADPH molecules and ribose-5-phosphate molecules are created. The function of NADPH molecules is to build other types of molecules. For example, RSP sugar is used for the production of DNA and RNA creating S-phospho-D-ribose alpha-1 pyrophosphate, and, if there is an excess of ribose-S-phosphate, said excess may not be used to biosynthesis and therefore it is transformed into other sugars that can be used by the cell for metabolism.
