Biology

Answer:

D). genetic drift

Explanation:

Genetic drift is the change in an allele frequency over a period of time. This event has to be random and a chance event.

For example: In a population of a flowering plant there are two types of flowers, blue and yellow. Due to a fire many yellow flowers are destroyed by chance. Now the resultant population will have more blue flowers and when they reproduce the population will eventually evolve to have more blue flowers. Effect of genetic variation is more pronounced in a small population since its easy to disturb the allele frequency.

In which stage of the Calvin cycle does the plant cell produce energy for storage?
Ludmilka [50]
I believe the answer is the Regeneration stage.
A this stage of the Calvin Cycle, only one of the G3P molecules leaves the cycle and is sent to the cytoplasm to contribute to the formation of other compounds needed by the plant. Because the G3P exported from the chloroplast has three carbon atoms, it takes three "turns" of the Calvin cycle to fix enough net carbon to export one G3P. Each turn makes two G3Ps, therefore three turns make six G3Ps.
