How are the products represented in the chemical equation for photosynthesis?
Liula [17]
The correct option is D.
During the process of photosynthesis, carbon dioxide and water react together in the presence of sunlight energy to form glucose and oxygen. Glucose and oxygen are the product of photosynthesis. The chemical formula for glucose is C6H12O6 and that of oxygen is O2.

Wild diploid wheat has seven chromosomes in its pollen. Discuss the major events that had to occur for tetraploid pasta wheat to
lianna [129]

Answer:

Tetraploid wheat evolved by allopolyploidization and subsequent diploid-like behavior due to cytological diploidization

Explanation:

Durum wheat (<em>Triticum durum</em>) or pasta wheat, is a tetraploid wheat species that has 28 chromosomes, i.e., seven pairs in each genome (2n = 4x = 28). Durum wheat was domesticated from wild emmer wheat, which originated by hybridization of two diploid wheat species with 14 chromosomes: <em>Triticum monococcum</em> (genome AA) and one wild progenitor (genome BB). <em>Triticum durum </em>is a typical example of evolution by hybridization and polyploidization, where the resultant tetraploid species has two complete sets of chromosomes. Allopolyploidization is one of the most common types of plant speciation. During meiosis, 28 chromosomes form 14 homologous chromosome pairs, because homologous chromosomes have developed 'restriction of pairing' (i.e., cytological diploidization). The restriction of pairing to fully homologous chromosomes ensures a correct meiotic behavior, which otherwise would be altered due to the high level of homology that still exists among chromosomes from different wheat progenitors.

how are mutations continually being generated in a population (what are some of the causes of mutatuions?) explain
vampirchik [111]
Some causes could be the mother smoking, drinking, doing drugs etc. Or even simply her body doesn’t fully accept the baby growing inside her so it acts out against it. Sounds strange but it happens. Also if the mother is sick with Zika or another virus, it can harm the baby’s growth.

Suppose that an arginine residue in the active site of an enzyme was mutated to alanine. As expected, the alanine mutant was ina
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

Alanine to lysine.

Explanation:

Mutation may be defined as the sudden, heritable change in the genome sequence of an organism. Two main types of mutation are chromosomal mutation and point mutation.

The mutation has occurred in which the arginine is replaced by alanine. The mutation that can restore to wild type is the conversion of alanine with lysine.    Since both arginine and lysine are basic amino acids. They both shows almost similar function and the replacement of lysine with alanine shows the wild type activity.

Thus, the answer is alanine to lysine.
