The carbon dioxide breathed out is a by-product of the process of cell respiration, as is water. In this process, energy is produced in the mitochondria of cells. This energy is our physical "life force". Both oxygen and glucose are required for this.
Answer:
6 offsprings with white fur
Explanation:
The gene involved here codes for fur colour in mice where the allele for brown fur (B) is dominant over the allele for white fur (b) i.e. the B allele will mask the expression of b allele in an heterozygous state (Bb).
Since allele B is dominant, in an heterozygous state (Bb), the mice will be brown-furred. Hence in a cross between two Bb parents, a phenotypic ratio of 1:2:1 will be produced where;
1 is BB (homozygous brown fur), 2 is Bb (heterozygotic brown fur) and 1 is bb (homozygous white fur).
Hence, 1/4 × 100= 25% offsprings will be white furred. If 24 mice result, 25/100 × 24 = 6 offsprings will be white.
Answer:
Plant cells need both chloroplasts and mitochondria because they perform both photosynthesis and cell respiration.
Explanation:
Chloroplast converts solar energy into chemical energy during photosynthesis, while mitochondria, the powerhouse of the cell, produces ATP- the energy currency of the cell during respiration.
