Answer:

B- Photosynthesis

Explanation:

Chloroplasts are <em>chlorophyll-containing, eukaryotic cell structures</em> that function in photosynthesis by absorbing energy from sunlight, combining this energy with water and CO2 to convert them to sugars . This cell structure is known as a plastid. The sugars produced, are important for the survival of the plant.

Chloroplasts reproduce on their own, independent of the whole cell because they contain their own DNA. Plant chloroplasts are located  in guard cells in plant leaves. Closely linked to these guard cells are tiny pores called stomata, which allow gas exchange required for photosynthesis.

Photosynthesis occurs in two stages:

  1. The light reaction stage
  2. The dark reaction stage

The Light reaction stage takes place in the presence of light. Clorophyll converts light into chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH. Both molecules produced, are used in the dark stage to produce sugar.

In the dark reaction stage, the stroma, containing enzymes, facilitates reactions leading to the production of sugars from ATP and NADPH. This process is also called the carbon fixation stage. The sugar produced can be stored in the form of starch for other processes such as respiration.

Answer: Option B.

Photosynthesis.

Explanation:

Chloroplasts are organelles that contain chlorophyll (green pigment) that are found in plant cells and some protist. Chloroplast conduct photosynthesis. Chloroplast trap light energy from sunlight and combine with carbon dioxide and water to produce carbohydrates.

Both liver cells and lens cells have the genes for making the proteins albumin and crystalline. However, only liver cells expres
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer: The claim that gene regulation results in differential gene expression and influences cellular products (albumin or crystalline) is best supported by t<u>he specific transcription factors made in a cell.</u>

Explanation:

Genes store deoxyribonucleic acid or DNA that makes up the genome. The genetic information within genes is expressed through a process called transcription followed by translation.

During this, the genotype of the organism is changed into its phenotype or physical characteristics genes are controlled or regulated through certain molecular mechanisms   These essentially determine transcription and translation and whether gene products is active or in active genes are turned on when they are able to transcribe the genome.  

gene expression may be regulated   via

  • modulation before or after the transcription process
  • modulating translation
  • modulation after translation

A control for the transcription process  is called a transcription factor. These are DNA sequence specific proteins that are capable of activating or suppressing transcription at certain sites. In different cell types, different combinations of transcription factors contribute to gene expression.

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

The population of the moth is mixed with light colored and dark colored moth but the population of light colored moth is more as compared to that of the dark colored moth.

The light colored moth get mixed in the population of the lichen as they are also of light colored.

The population of the light colored moth will increase as they will be preyed less because of the color that matches to its surrounding.
