Answer:
Phosphates are critical part of life because of the diverse roles they perform in the lives of living organisms, especially in DNA and RNA molecules.
Phosphates are formed from two elements, phosphorus and oxygen. Phosphorus is a very important element that play a crucial roles in the formation of bones and teeth. It is also plays vital roles in carbohydrate metabolism, fat metabolism, protein synthesis and repair of worn out tissues. Oxygen on the other hand is required for oxidation of biological fuel and for breathing.
Phosphates are usually formed from one atom of phosphorus and four atoms of oxygen, it has the chemical formula PO4. Phosphate is an important component of DNA and RNA molecules, phosphates hold these molecules together. Phosphate molecule is also found in ATP, which is the energy currency of living cells.
Answer:
D. atomic mass unit
Explanation:
The atomic mass unit is used for measuring atomic mass.
Okay, to start off, the basic difference between prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells is prokaryotic cells are cells without a nucleus, and eukaryotic cells are cells that contain a nucleus.
So based off that information alone, you can answer #1. Cell A does not have a nucleus (big circle shape), while Cell B does. Therefore, Cell A is the prokaryotic cell.
As for #2, prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells DO have similarities despite their differences. For instance, they both have some of the same organelles, like the plasma membrane, ribosomes, cytoplasm, and DNA.
Finally for #3, two differences are that #1, prokaryotic cells have nucleoids while eukaryotic cells have a nucleus, and #2, prokaryotes have circular DNA while eukaryotes have linear DNA.
Your best bet is finding a visual aid in a textbook or online to help you, so you can better identify organelles and eukaryotic/prokaryotic cells. Also, there are some cheesy videos out there on YouTube which I was forced to sit through in Bio class last year such as the Amoeba Sister's youtube channel which could help. Hope this helped!

Answer:
See the answer below
Explanation:
1. <u>Only one phenotype</u> is present in the F1 generation offspring. Since tallness was dominant over shortness, all the offspring in the F1 generation appeared tall.
2. <u>Two phenotypes </u>are present in the F2 generation - 9 tall and 3 short. The short trait reappeared at the F2 generation.
3. The genotype of the F1 offspring would be heterozygous. Assuming the purebred tall is AA and the purebred short is aa:
AA x aa
Aa Aa Aa Aa
All the F1 offspring will appear tall and their genotypes would be heterozygous.
4. Assuming that the allele for height is denoted with A (a), <u>the genotype of the purebred tall plant would be AA. </u>
5. In a similia vein, <u>the genotype of the purebred short plant would be aa. </u>
