No, not sure why you would think yes!
The ester bonds in lipids are found where the fatty acids of the lipid join to the glycerol back bone of the lipid.
Lipids are made from two kind of molecules namely Glycerol and Fatty acids. A glycerol molecule is made up of three carbon atoms with an alcohol group attached to each of the carbon atoms and hydrogen atoms occupying the remaining positions.
A fatty acids consist of an acid group at the end of the molecule and a hydrocarbon chain.
In a process called esterification, the acid group of the fatty acid joins to the alcohol group of the glycerol molecule and water is released resulting in the formation of a linkage called an ester bond.
Answer:
this gene is a mitochondrial gene and therefore it is maternally inherited
Explanation:
The MT-ND5 gene is a gene of the mitochondrial genome that provides instructions for synthesizing a protein called NADH dehydrogenase 5, which is part of the complex I (the first enzyme of the respiratory chain). In most multicellular organisms, the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is inherited from the mother (i.e., maternally inherited), whereas nuclear DNA (i.e., nuclear genome) is inherited equally from both parents. For example, mitochondria in human sperm are usually destroyed after fertilization. In consequence, mitochondrial mutations are transmitted by maternal inheritance, and individuals, therefore, cannot be heterozygous for mitochondrial genes.
Answer: The corn plants were damaged by the herbicide.
Explanation
Depending upon the plant affected and the herbicide used, effects of herbicide damage differ. Popular signs include flattened stems or twisting or corkscrewing. Leaves can have shapes, sizes or textures that are irregular. Moreover, yellow or reddened leaves or leaf veins may. This usually leads to loss in crops as noticed from the maize plantation where more than half was lost.
