Answer:

b) Lateral branch shoots would grow more horizontally and have less of a tendency to turn upward.

d) Lateral branch roots fully embedded in soil would grow randomly upward and downward.

e) Roots breaking the soil surface would grow upward.

Explanation:

Inside the amyloplasts of the common bean the starch granules resemble variously sized cotton balls stuffed into a balloon. Under normal circumstances amyloplasts do nothing more than sit on the bottom of special gravity-sensing cells. When a plant is knocked over, the amyloplasts slide from what was recently the bottom of the cell onto a formerly vertical wall. Somehow, this movement is sensed and relayed to cells that secrete the growth-regulating plant hormone auxin.

Since the plant has lost the ability to transform glucose into the granules. The plant can´t differentiate between up or down because gravity is what causes these granules to settle down.

A) 0%<br> B) 25%<br> C) 50%<br> D) 100%
aksik [14]

Answer: C). 50%

Explanation:

The possible genotypes of the offsprings are Gg and gg. Gg has a dominant gene G for glossy leaves and so will manifest as glossy leaves because G is dominant over g which is recessive. Fifty percent of the offsprings will have glossy leaves while the remaining fifty percent will have nonglossy leaves.

See the attached punnet square for illustration.

The graph pictured shows bacterial growth, in a petri dish, in which no additional resources are added over time.
kipiarov [429]

The graph pictured shows bacterial growth, in a petri dish, in which no additional resources are added over time, The graph pictured shows bacterial growth, in a petri dish, in which no additional resources are added over time.

<h3>How does the bacteria actually grow in the petri dish?</h3>

Sterile powdered agar with nutrients can be mixed with moisture, heated and then rushed into empty petri plates or ready-to-use dishes can be purchased.

The undigestible agar is a gelatin-like substance with a semi solid surface on which the bacteria can grow while they engulf the added nutrients

Thus, option "D" is correct.
