4 0

Monohybrid crosses only look at one genotype. Whereas dihybrid crosses look at two genotypes.
An example of a monohybrid cross would be AA x aa, where A represents the dominant allele, and its phenotype is the colour red, and a represents the recessive allele, and its phenotype is the colour white.
An example of a dihybrid cross would be SSYY x SsYy, where the letter S represents the size, dominant phenotype is large, recessive is small, and Y represents the colour, dominant phenotype is yellow, recessive is green.

In photosynthesis, how does the movement of electrons along the electron transport chain affect hydrogen ions (h+)? how does thi

lukranit [14]

As electrons move along the chain, hydrogen ion are pumped from the stroma of the chloroplast into thylakoid lumen. these leads to creation of proton gradient in thylakoid lumen with the potential energy that will be used to synthesize ATP by enzyme ATPase in the process referred to as rotational catalysis. both chloroplast and mitochondria use electron transport chain to pump protons across the membrane and both enzyme ATPase to produce ATP using proton gradient created in the process of transport of hydrogen ions. the main existing between the electron transport chains of chloroplast and mitochondria is the initial source of energy. chloroplasts obtain their energy from sunlight whereas mitochondria obtain theirs from organic molecules.
