Alleles for the same trait are separated from each other during the process of ____

Biology

Darya [45]4 years ago

Answer:

Meiosis

Explanation:

A diploid organism receives two forms of gene called ALLELE, one from each parent. These genes are passed on by parents to their offsprings as chromosomes on long strands of DNA.

According to Mendel's law of segregation, these alleles get separated into gametes during meiosis. Meiosis a cell division that results in daughter cells (gametes) that has half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.

During meiosis I, homologous chromosomes i.e. similar but non-identical chromosomes received from each parent pair up. These chromosomes (homologous) contains the same genes coding for the same trait but may be in different forms (alleles). The chromosomes containing these alleles get randomly separated into individual cells (gametes) during anaphase of meiosis.

Hence, a gamete receives one allele for each trait.

pochemuha

Answer:

1. Eukaryotic

2. Eukaryota

Explanation:

1. Eukaryotic- The newly found species has a cell wall and contains membrane-bound organelles. The presence of membrane-bound organelles shows that the cell is a Eukaryotic cell.

2. Eukaryota- the species is single-celled with the presence of cell wall without peptidoglycan. This shows that the species could belong to the Eukaryota domain proposed by Carl Woese.

Thus, 1. Eukaryotic and 2. Eukaryota is the correct answer.

A state is looking to reduce the cost of transportation, which uses 7.10×10^14 BTUs per year. Currently the cost of 10^6BTUs is
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

$ 284 million dollars

Explanation:

If the energy usage of all transportation is 7.10 × 10¹⁴ BTU per year, if their efficiency is to increase by 20%, The new energy usage will be (1 + 20/100)7.10 × 10¹⁴ BTU per year = (1.02)7.10 × 10¹⁴ BTU per year = 7.242 × 10¹⁴ BTU per year.

The energy saved is thus the difference 7.242 × 10¹⁴ BTU per year - 7.10 × 10¹⁴ BTU per year = 0.142 × 10¹⁴ BTU per year.

Since 10⁶ BTU costs $ 20.00, then,

0.142 × 10¹⁴ BTU costs 0.142 × 10¹⁴ BTU × $ 20.00/10⁶ BTU = $ 2.84 × 10⁸ per year = $ 284 million dollars

So the state saves $ 284 million dollars in one year

What type of chlorophyll does the reaction center contain
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

Chlorophyll "a"

Explanation:

The reaction centers of the photosystem have chlorophyll "a" molecules. The chlorophyll "a" that functions as a reaction center for the photosystem II has absorption maxima at 680 nm and therefore, it is called P680. The reaction center of photosystem I also have chlorophyll "a" molecules that have the absorption peak at 700 nm. The chlorophyll "a" molecules serving as reaction centers transfer the photoexcited electrons to a primary acceptor during the light-dependent phase of photosynthesis.
