Answer:

The plant on the left does not accumulate significant photochlorophyll or carotenoids, so it will become very pale on the shoot tip, while the plant on the right will continue to grow upward as auxin is uniformly distributed around the tip of the right plant.

Explanation:

Phototropism is the orientation of a plant in response to light, either towards the source of light or away from light. Positive phototropism is growth towards light, while negative phototropism is away from light.

Auxin are substances that promote and regulate the growth and development of plants. Auxin escapes light making the area in the shade elongate more so the plant tip moves towards the light.

Ratling [72]

Answer:

C) production of sperm and eggs

Explanation:

Sperms and eggs are the male and female gametes respectively. Formation of sperms and egg cells require meiotic cell division. Meiosis in sperm mother cells and egg mother cells reduces the chromosome number of half in the sperms and eggs. Meiosis also adds new gene combinations in these gametes by the process of crossing over.  

Mitosis cannot reduce the chromosome number to half in the sperms and eggs. Absence of crossing over in mitosis leads to the formation of genetically identical progeny cells from mitosis.  

Hence, mitosis can not form sperms and egg cells.  If it does, the sperms and egg cells would not have genetic variations and there would be doubling of chromosome number with each round of sexual reproduction.

What is glucuronidation in the liver function.
AnnZ [28]

Glucuronidation, a conjugation reaction, is thought to protect the liver by both reducing hepatic BA toxicity and increasing their urinary elimination. The present study evaluates the contribution of each process in the overall BA detoxification by glucuronidation.

Euglenas are unicellular organisms. They are both self feeder and other feeders. Which statement summarizes the heterotrophic ac
lukranit [14]

Answer:

The best answer from the list of options is option D (They are colorless and feed on other, smaller cells)

Explanation:

Euglenas have cells that contain chloroplasts, which means they can make their food like plants through photosynthesis, and when it is dark where they can't get sunlight they can also make food by engulfing their prey through the plasma membrane and absorb them. Euglenas are heterotrophic since they call also feed on smaller cells. Their whip-like tail when viewed under the microscope, is colorless. However, the chloroplasts make them appear green and they can also come in red color.
