A detailed look at the structure of the mitochondrion helps to explain its role in the last stage of respiration, the electron transport chain. Mitochondrion are sometimes referred to as the "power plants" of the cell, as these are the organelles that generate most of the cell's supply of ATP.
Answer:
This question is asking to fill in the blank spaces with the correct terms. The correct terms to the four blank spaces are:
1) GEL
2) DYE
3) DNA MARKER
4) LID
Explanation:
This question is describing the Gel electrophoresis technique which is used to separate DNA fragments using electric current. The DNA fragments of different sizes migrate through a GEL which serves as the matrix made from Agarose.
In order to physically see the samples that we put in the gel, we first have to add DYE to each sample of DNA. After loading the samples to be separated, a substance made up of DNA fragments of known sizes referred to as DNA MARKER, which acts as the standard curve in a tube is used.
Before running the gel, it's important to make sure that there is LID covering the gel in the gel rig. This will make sure that the electrical current runs through the gel and the gel stays cool.
Answer:
Genotype of the father: Heterozygous dominant (Aa)
Explanation:
Let's suppose allele "a" is responsible for albinism while allele "A" gives normal phenotype.
Given that Albinism is a recessive trait, it will be expressed in a homozygous recessive genotype only. The female snake is albino and hence, her genotype is= "aa".
Since the progeny have both normal and albino snake, the male parent should be heterozygous dominant (Aa) with one copy of normal allele and one copy of recessive allele.
Water is important to every organism. A great portion of chemical reactions that organisms use take place in water, so without water, organisms would not be able to metabolize anything. ... Primary consumers (herbivores) would suffer twofold as their prey (the plants) die and their water source disappeared.
