A scientist wishes to determine the effect of a digestive enzyme on starch digestion (starch is broken down into glucose). The e

xperimental setup is to mix the enzyme with starch in a test tube, stop the reaction after a known period of time, and then measure the amount of glucose produced.

Answer:

An identical setup but replacing the enzyme with an equal volume of water

Explanation:

When carrying out any experiment, it is important to set out a control in order to increase the reliability of the data and results.

The control minimizes the effects of variables other than the independent variable.

In the above experiment, starch has to be eliminated and replaced with water. Water does not have starch hence the digestive enzyme being tested will not have any effects making the data and results from the experimental group reliable.

Mendel spent years crossing pure bred pea plants together to observe their phenotypes. One consistent pattern he observed is tha
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

D (purple flower plant is dominant)

Explanation:

Gregor Mendel was regarded as the "Father of Genetics" because of his outstanding contribution to discovering the pattern of inheritance. In his experiments with purebreeding purple and white-flowered plants, he discovered that the F1 offsprings were all purple-flowered.

This observation made him to propose his LAW OF DOMINANCE, which states that one allele of a gene is capable of masking the expression of another in a heterozygous state. In this case of flower colour gene, the allele for purple color (P) is masking the gene of the white colour (p) in a combined state. Hence, purple allele is said to be DOMINANT over white allele.

He discovered that the white allele was being masked when he performed a dihybrid cross i.e. F1 self cross to derive a plant with white flowers.
