Genes are typically hundreds or thousands of base pairs in length because they code for proteins made of hundreds or thousands of amino acids. Most genes contain the information needed to make functional molecules called proteins.
Answer:
c) matter in an ecosystem flows in one direction and is never reused.
Explanation:
A is true
Answer:
B. As the distance between loci increases, some multiple crossovers go undetected such that the relationship between recombination frequency and map distance ceases to be linear.
Explanation:
When calculating recombination frequencies, and hence, map distances, we might notice that these distances are not completely additive. They might vary. <em>For example, let us say that we have three genes, A, B, and C, in that order. </em>We calculated that the <em>distance between A and B equals 5.9</em> MU and that <em>B and C are 19.5 MU apart.</em> According to this, we might say that the <em>total distance between A and C is 25.4 MU (5.9 + 19.5). </em>However, after a<em> two-point calculation between A and C, the value equals 23.7 MU. </em>
The recombination frequency between these two genes located in the extremes and far apart underestimate the actual genetic distances between them because there might occur other crossing-overs that were not detected. This is <em>when calculating the distance between A and C, we probably will not detect the occurrence of a double recombinant between them, and hence, we might sub-estimate the real distance.</em>
The relationship between the actual map distance (number of crossing overs) and the recombination frequency between two loci, is not lineal. The farther apart are the two genes, the worse is the distance estimation.
Answer:
Signal transduction pathways
Explanation:
Plant hormones act by directly affecting the activities of signal transduction pathways.
Signal transduction pathways are involved in the transfer of signals from outside of the cell to the inside of the cell for the regulation of various cellular activities. For this, the extracellular signalling molecules bind to the receptors that are located on the cell membrane. After their binding due to some change in the receptor molecule, a signal is triggered in to the cell and thus information from outside of the cell is transferred to the inside of the cell through these transduction pathways.
Plant hormones affect these pathways and as a result membranes, enzymes, and genes are also influenced by the plant hormones.
Cellular respiration:
Cellular respiration is the process by which cell break down glucose with oxygen to store the energy as adenine triphosphate or ATP. Energy from ATP is used to help the cell perform daily functions like growing, dividing and repairing itself. Glucose can either be created through photosynthesis in plant cells or ingested in animal cells.
There are four phages of cellular respiration.
• Glycolysis
• Transition stage
• Citric acid cycle
• Electron transport chain
