Answer: The genotype ratio is 2Ff : 2ff

The phenotype ratio is two normal feathered birds to two silky feathered birds.

Explanation: Let F represent the gene for normal feather and f represent the gene for silky feather. F is dominant while f is recessive, therefore a male that is hybrid for trait of normal feather is heterozygous and will have a genotype of Ff, a female that is homozygous for silky feather will have a genotype of ff.

A cross between Ff and ff will yield 2Ff birds and 2ff birds. Since F is dominant, a bird having genotype of Ff will manifest outwardly as blue feathered birds while ff will manifest outwardly as silky feathered birds because f is recessive and must occur in a homozygous condition in order to manifest phenotypically. Therefore, the genotype ratio is 2Ff: 2ff.

If body temperature is too high some blood vessels increase in size and sweat glands will excrete sweat resulting in a lower bod
Svetradugi [14.3K]

The answer is -Homeostasis

The human body has the ability to maintain a constant internal environment so that every organ function properly. Maintenance of a constant internal conditions is called homeostasis. For examples, a healthy human body functions optimum at normal temperature which is 37°C. If the body temperature increases well above 37°C, then by self-regulatory process, our  body brings down temperature to the normal. This is homeostasis.

Which of the following statements regarding Entner-Doudoroff pathway is true?
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

C. ATP is generated

Explanation:

The Entner-Doudoroff pathway is one of the three glycolytic pathways that breakdown glucose into pyruvate. The Entner-Doudoroff pathway is the most common glycolytic pathway in microbes present in the soil such as <em>Rhizobium, Azotobacter,</em> etc.

The Entner-Doudoroff pathway forms glucose 6-phosphate from glucose which in turn is oxidized into 6-phosphogluconate. The 6-phosphogluconate finally forms pyruvate and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate through a series of reactions. The glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate can enter the Embden-Meyerhof pathway to form one more molecule of pyruvate. During the Entner-Doudoroff pathway, one molecule of ATP and one NADPH are formed along with the formation of one molecule of each pyruvate and glyceraldehyde.

C4 plants are thought to be more efficient than c3 plants because they
postnew [5]

Answer:

C4 plant are capable to deal with photorespiration

Explanation:

C4 are more efficient than the C3 plants because the C4 have a mechanism to deal with the photorespiration. C4 combat photorespiration by fixing the intial carbon dioxide between mesophyll and bundle-sheath cells (in space)and calcin cycle. The light dependent process and the calvin cycle are separate in C4 plants. Also C4 plants can adapt easily to even hot sunny environment
