Oxygen is an element in the sixth group of the periodic table. This means it contains 6 electrons in its valence shell. Therefore, to complete its octet, it will prefer to gain two electrons rather than to donate 6. This is why its valency is -2. The relatively easy to achieve octet makes Oxygen a reactive element.

Plants inherit genes that enable them to produce chlorophyll, but this pigment is not produced unless the plants are exposed to
lozanna [386]
Plants inherit genes that enable them to produce chlorophyll, but this pigment is not produced unless the plants are exposed to light. this is an example of how the environment can influence on gene expression.  
<span>
Light has an important role in gene expression in plants by producing a number of light-induced changes. One of the examples of the light effects is that chlorophyll and the proteins required for assembling the photosynthetic apparatus are synthesized together with the enzymes needed for carbon fixation. Gene expression influenced by light includes the regulation at the level of transcription or, alternatively regulation of translation.</span>

Select all the molecules that have stored potential energy and that can be used in aerobic respiration to generate atp.
Masteriza [31]

Carbohydrates, lipids, and protein have potential energy, and can be used in aerobic respiration to generate .

Carbohydrate- A carbohydrate is a naturally occurring substance or a derivative of one, made composed of molecules of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. The most prevalent organic compound is a carbohydrate, and all life depends on them.

Lipids- Fatty, waxy, or oily molecules are referred to as lipids. They are soluble in organic solvents but insoluble in polar solvents like water.

Protein- Large, intricate molecules known as proteins serve a variety of vital functions in the body. They are crucial for the construction, operation, and control of the body's tissues and organs and carry out the majority of their job inside cells.

How does diploidy help to preserve genetic variation? see concept 23.4 (page 498)?
mario62 [17]
Monoploid organisms reproduce asexually since they need to transmit all of their genetic material to their offspring. Diploid organisms, have 2 copies of their genetic material that differ slightly in their genes. Since the progeny gets half of the DNA from each parent, we have that new combinations can emerge; for example, if the mother is AA for some allele and the father aa, their offspring will be Aa, a new genotype. This might have different implications (for example, the recessive gene for thalassemia also provides resistance to malaria). Finally, during meiosis, there is also an event called crossover that increases the genetic variation of the offspring.

Assume sexual reproduction occurs. What is the number of chromosomes in the zygote if the parent's reproductive cells or gametes
Rudik [331]
<span>If the parent's reproductive cells or gametes contain 12 chromosomes each, the number of chromosomes in the zygote is 24. Fertilization is the fusion of two haploid gametes and results in the creation of a diploid zygote. If two haploid gametes containing 12 chromosomes each fuse, the zygote will have 24 chromosomes (12 + 12 = 24).</span>
