How could a plant control turgor pressure?

Biology

It requires water to do so. And for the uptake of water from it's surroundings, a cell must keep it's internal fluid or the cell sap at a higher solute concentration or lower water potential. This results in "endosmosis". Once water enters the cell, the protoplast swells and the cell membrane exerts a pushing force on the cell wall which is called the turgor pressure.

So basically, it has to regulate the flow of solute particles or ions across its cell membrane and keep its cell sap at a higher solute concentration or lower water potential, compared to its surrounding medium

mezya [45]

Answer:

The correct answer is option d.

Explanation:

The non-genotoxic carcinogens lead to cancer not by amending the genotype, that is, they do not cause mutations straightforwardly. In spite, they result in cancers due to secondary mechanisms that are not associated with direct damage of the gene. They influence either the growth factors or the hormones related to growth.

A breeder wants to set up a program to produce zebrafish with long fins. Having long fins is a dominant trait compared to the sh
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

Let the allele for long fin trait be "L" and the allele for short fin trait be "l"

Given L is dominant over l

If he crosses a long fish and short fin to produce three fourth long fins and one fourth short fins, it is not confirmed that the long fin species are homozygous as represented in the cross below

Ll * Ll

LL, Ll. Ll, ll

The two parent species are long (but not homozygous). Hence, option A is incorrect

However, if this test cross is carried out several times, the recessive trait may disappear thereby producing only homozygous long finned species.

Hence, option C is correct
