Two test tubes are filled with a solution of bromthymol blue. A student exhales through a straw into each tube, and the bromthym

ol blue turns yellow. An aquatic green plant is placed in each tube, and the tubes are corked. One tube is placed in the dark, and the other tube is placed in direct sunlight. The yellow solution in the tube in sunlight turns blue, while the one in the dark remains yellow. Which statement best explains why the solution in the tube placed in sunlight returns to a blue color?a) Carbon dioxide was produced by respiration.b) Carbon dioxide was removed by photosynthesis.c) Oxygen was produced by photosynthesis.d) Oxygen was removed by respiration.

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

 

When Bromthymol blue (BTB) receives carbon dioxide (after a student exhales into it), turns yellow. This yellow color is due to the formation of slightly acidic carbonic acid. Now,  an aquatic green plant is placed in both the test tubes and one of these test tube is placed in sunlight. Thus, the test tube kept in sun has all ideal requirements  that would allow the plant to photosynthesize. Photosynthesis process removes carbon dioxide from the test tube and hence it apperas blue again. While the test tube in dark still appears yellow in color

Hence, option B is correct

Answer:

Explanation:

Species: a group of living organisms consisting of similar individuals capable of exchanging genes or interbreeding.

Population: a particular group or type of people or animals living in a place.

Gene pool: the stock of different genes in an interbreeding population.

Mutations: the changing of the structure of a gene, resulting in a variant form that may be transmitted to subsequent generations, caused by the alteration of single base units in DNA, or the deletion, insertion, or rearrangement of larger sections of genes or chromosomes.

Lateral Gene Transfer: the movement of genetic material between unicellular and/or multicellular organisms other than by the transmission of DNA from parent to offspring (reproduction).

Single-gene Traits: when a trait is linked to one gene-pair that consists of two alleles.

Polygenic Traits: is one whose phenotype is influenced by more than one gene.

Greg is breeding leopard geckos and wants to produce a new color morph. He crosses a homozygous red morph with a homozygous whit
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Codominance

Explanation:

Codominance occurs when two heterozygous allele for a trait is expressed equally in the an organism's phenotype with neither allele being dominant or recessive. In codominance, none of the allele hides the expression of the other allele. So when two alleles are crossed, the offspring carries a combination of the parents phenotype without anyone masking the other.

From the question,  the type of genetic pattern of the leopard geckos display is codominance.
