The central vacuoles of some plant cells you are studying fill with water and press the cell contents against their cell walls b

Answer:

The correct answers to the question are:

  • The concentration of solute bathing the inner side of the plant cell membrane should be high.
  • The concentration of solute bathing the outer side of the plant cell membrane should be low.

Explanation:

  • Turgidity can be defined as a condition in which the cell membrane of the plants cells becomes completely extended as a result of which it pushes tightly against the cell wall.
  • This happens when the cell takes up water from its environment and stores it in the vacuoles.
  • Water enters to the inside of the cell by the process of Osmosis.
  • Osmosis can be defined as the process by which molecules tend to move or diffuse from a region where its concentration is high to another region where its concentration is low, provided the two regions are separated by a semi-permeable membrane.
  • In any region, the concentration of solute and and concentration of solvent  bears an inverse relationship. This means that the region where the solute concentration is high, the solvent concentration is low and where the solute concentration is low, the solvent concentration is high.
  • In the given question, as the cell takes up water from the surrounding into its vacuole to become turgid, so by the concept of osmosis, the concentration of water must have been high outside the cell and low inside the cell.
  • Again by the inverse concentration concept of solute and solvent, the concentration of solute inside the cell should be more than the concentration of solute outside the cell.

aleksklad [387]

Answer:

<em>9/16 A_B_ White colour, axial flower </em>

<em>3/16 A_bb White colour, terminal flower</em>

<em>3/16 aaB_ Yellow colour, axial flower</em>

<em>1/16 aabb Yellow colour, terminal flower</em>

Explanation:

Let the flower colour allele be represented by A and the flower position by B. The dominant white colour would be A while the alternate version (the yellow colour) would be a. Also, the dominant axial flower position would be B while the alternate terminal position would be b.

The Punnet's square result of crossing two plants that are heterozygous for both traits is as in the attached image.

AaBb   x   AaBb

Possible Offspring

<em>9/16 A_B_ White colour, axial flower </em>

<em>3/16 A_bb White colour, terminal flower</em>

<em>3/16 aaB_ Yellow colour, axial flower</em>

<em>1/16 aabb Yellow colour, terminal flower</em>

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

<em>A diagram of a Punnett Square showing the chromosomes involved in the inheritance of sex-linked traits. </em>

<em>The female had the genotype XHXh, and produced the two gametes seen at the left side of the diagram. </em>

<em>The male had the genotype XHY0, and produced the two gametes seen at the right side of the diagram. </em>

<em>The genotypes seen in the center of the square represent the possible genotypes of the F1 generation. </em>

<em>Two female offspring are produced for every two male offspring. </em>

<em>One male and one female offspring inherit normal genes. </em>

<em>One female is heterozygous for the hemophilia trait and is considered a carrier. </em>

<em>One male receives a damaged X-chromosome and inherits the condition known as hemophilia.</em>
