Due to the insertion of the hamstrings, cutting the patellar tendon would inactivate the hamstring group.

Answer: False

Explanation:

The patellar tendon attaches the bottom of the kneecap (patella) to the top of the shinbone (tibia). It is actually a ligament that connects to two different bones, the patella and the tibia.The patella is attached to the quadriceps muscles by the quadriceps tendon.The medial and lateral vasti muscles also attach independently to patella to form aponeuroses, the medial and lateral patellar ligament. Working together, the quadriceps muscles, quadriceps tendon and patellar tendon straighten the knee. When the patellor tendon is ruptured, the ability to extend the knee is greatly effected and decreased but its not completely disappears. Thus the quadriceps functions is not entirely compromised.

Explain the phenomenon of photorespiration, including why it is thought to occur (evolutionarily speaking), and why plants have
liubo4ka [24]

Photorespiration limits casualty products of light reactions that build up in the absence of the Calvin cycle. In many plants, photorespiration is a problem because on a hot, dry day it can drain as much as 50% of the carbon fixed by the Calvin cycle.  The closing of stomata reduces access to CO2 and causes O2 to build up. These conditions favor a seemingly not useful process called photorespiration.  In most plants (C3 plants), initial fixation of CO2, via rubisco, forms a three-carbon compound.  In photorespiration, rubisco adds O2 instead of CO2 in the Calvin cycle. Photorespiration eats up O2 and organic fuel and releases CO2 without producing ATP or sugar. Photorespiration can evolve relic because rubisco first evolved at a time when the atmosphere had far less O2 and more CO2.

Describe the difference between selective breeding and genetic modification
tekilochka [14]

Individuals in selective breeding should be of the similar species. Scientists use GMO to generate new gene combinations. Genes pair on their own through selective breeding.

<h3>What is genetic modification?</h3>

A technique to change the characteristics of a plant, animal, or microorganism by swapping a piece of DNA from one organism to an another organism is referred to as gene modification.

Selective breeding entails selecting parents with specific characteristics to breed with in order to generate offspring with more desirable characteristics.

Individuals in selective breeding should be of a similar species. Scientists use GMOs to generate new gene combinations. Genes pair on their own through selective breeding.

Thus, this is the difference between selective breeding and genetic modification.
