Biology

bekas [8.4K]4 years ago
7 0
<span>The function of a cell wall has the same function of the cell membrane; it protects the cell. Cell wall is made up of cellulose that is only present in plant cells. Cellulose is a sugar that has a sheet like structural carbohydrate. It is rigid that is used for support and provides protection to the plant cell from damage. They cannot be dissolved in water. An example is if you eat food that contains mostly of leaves. You will observe that you will eliminate the same material as when you it. That is because our human body does not have the enzyme that dissolves the cellulose.</span>

which of the following pairs does not fit the pattern shown by the other pairs? ( 1point ) A. amino acids,protein B. fatty acids
True [87]

Answer:

The correct answer would be B. fatty acids, DNA.

The other options show the pairing of polymer and their monomer units.

For example, proteins are the polymers of amino acids, starch is polymer made up of several glucose units.

Similarly, DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid is a double stranded molecule made up of nucleotides (not fatty acids) attached via phospho-di-ester bond.

The nucleotide is consisted of deoxyribose sugar, a nitrogenous base, and phosphorus group.

Thus, fatty acids and DNA make the inappropriate pairing as compared to other options.

A pea plant with genotype PP (purple flowers) mates with a plant with the genotype pp (white flowers). The dominant allele P cod
Basile [38]

In the question, it is given that the purple flowers are dominant to the white flowers. The dominant allele for the flower is P, and the recessive allele for the flower is p.

So, the possible genotypes of the purple flower is - PP or Pp.

And, the possible genotype of the white flower is - pp.

The cross1 shows the cross between PP and pp.

The phenotype of all the offspring in the cross 1 is Purple, and the genotype is pp. Hence, the possibility of getting purple flowers in the progeny is 100%.

Homozygous dominant genotype is the condition, in which the plant's alleles are same and both are dominant.

The cross 2 shows the cross between Pp and pp:

The homozygous dominant genotype (PP) is 1 and the total number of progeny is 4. So, the probability of occurence of PP is 1/4 or 25%.

Hence, the first blank can be filled with 100% and the second blank can be filled with 25%.

Propose an explanation for why DNA is transcribed<br> into RNA rather than directly into a proteins
Nady [450]
DNA has to be transcribed into RNA because not only can dna not leave the nuclear for translation at the ribosomes
Also for translation to occur the codons on the mRNA match up with the codons on the tRNA which is connected to the amino acids forming the chain
