Answer:
The primary function of the pigment during the process of photosynthesis is to absorb maximum light energy which is necessary for the process
Explanation:
The correct answer is B: The cells will have 2n chromosomes and be diploid.
Diploid cell have two of each chromosome, one from each parent. When diploid cell undergoes mitosis, the result is two identical diploid cells (when haploid cell undergoes mitosis the result is haploid cell). This means that during the mitosis, cells reproduce genetically identical copies of themselves.
The answer is D. Species A will have fewer phenotypes.
Alleles are alternative forms of a gene. In species A, the leaf color is controlled by two alleles, for example, P and Q. They will have three possible genotypes - PP, PQ, and QQ. Three different genotypes give maximum three phenotypes.In species B, leaf color is controlled by three alleles, for example, L, M, and N. They will have six different genotypes - LL, LM, LN, MM, MN, and NN. Six different genotypes give maximum 6 phenotypes.
