Answer:

12!

Explanation:

Sex cells only carry half of what makes up the organism's DNA. This is so that when they find a mate, in this case- another tomato, their sex cells and their partner's sex cells will add up to the appropriate amount of chromosomes in the organism's DNA. In this case, 24.

The answer is genetic drift. This is the <span>change</span> of allelic frequency in a population due to natural selection in <span>favor</span> of particular traits. The effect of natural drift is <span>greater</span> is a population of small size that in a big population. When the allelic frequency of the isolated group of plants reaches 0, it is <span>deemed</span> as lost.

Indicate how pH and temperature affect the activity of an enzyme. (Choose all that apply)
9966 [12]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Great variations in temperature and pH from the optimum that an enzyme needs can affect its function. pH affects ionization of the functional groups of amino acids. The interaction of charges of these amino groups helps in stabilizing loops such as those of beta sheets and alpha helices and give the protein its an appropriate shape to function.

Temperatures, on the other hand, while it does not change the ionization of the functional side groups of amino acids, it breaks these bonds of the interactions by giving the molecules enough energy to break free from these bonds hence denaturing the protein.

Explain how the shape of a protein molecules can affect its function
kherson [118]

Solution:

The function of a protein is determined by its shape.

The shape of a protein is determined by its primary structure (sequence of amino acids).

The sequence of amino acids in a protein is determined by the sequence of nucleotides in the gene (DNA) encoding it.

A Mercator projection map shows?
cricket20 [7]

Mercator projection, type of map projection introduced in 1569 by Gerardus Mercator. It is often described as a cylindrical projection, but it must be derived mathematically. The meridians are equally spaced parallel vertical lines, and the parallels of latitude are parallel horizontal straight lines that are spaced farther and farther apart as their distance from the Equator increases. This projection is widely used for navigation charts, because any straight line on a Mercator projection map is a line of constant true bearing that enables a navigator to plot a straight-line course. It is less practical for world maps, however, because the scale is distorted; areas farther away from the Equator appear disproportionately large. On a Mercator projection, for example, the landmass of Greenland appears to be greater than that of the continent of South America; in actual area, Greenland is smaller than the Arabian Peninsula.
