Answer:

Similarities between Mitochondria and Chloroplasts-

Both mitochondria and chloroplast consists of DNA , have two membranes, have fluids inside them and convert energy.

Difference between Mitochondria and Chloroplasts-

They have different number of compartments, have different functions, and are involved in different energy processes.

Explanation:

Difference in Mitochondria and Chloroplasts-

a) Chloroplast is found in plants and unicellular organism and Mitochondria is found  all cells.

b) Chloroplast converts solar energy into chemical energy while Mitochondria converts one form of chemical energy into other form of chemical energy

c) Chloroplast is involved in photosynthesis while mitochondria is involved in cellular respiration.

d) Chloroplast has three parts i) Thylakoid ii) stroma  and iii) granum while mitochondria has three parts i) Critsa ii) Matrix

Similarities between Mitochondria and Chloroplasts-

Both mitochondria and chloroplast consists of DNA , have two membranes, have fluids inside them and convert energy.

The amount of energy required to heat 0.5 kilograms of water until the temperature increases 12° C is about
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

Q = 25104 / 4.184 = 6000 Calories or 6 Kcal

Explanation

Energy can be calculated by the equation

Q = m x Cp x delta T

where

m = mass = 0.5 kg

Cp = specific heat of water = 4184 J

Delta T = 12 degrees

Multiplying all

Q = 0.5 x 4184 x 12 = 25104 Joules

Converting it to Calories

Q = 25104 / 4.184 = 6000 Calories or 6 Kcal

Blood type is a genetically determined trait. Two siblings donate blood and find out their blood types. The brother is Type A an
rjkz [21]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

The brother has different alleles for the blood type gene than his sister does.  Blood type is inherited from parents like many other traits that can be displayed on a punnet square.  Depending on what the parents blood type alleles were, the brother and sister could have different blood types.  

A different number of chromosomes doesn't lead to different blood types, so D is wrong.  And A is incorrect because the number genes also does not affect blood type.  And I think the blood type genes are on the same chromosome, so B is wrong.  C is correct because blood type is inherited by alleles, and different alleles can cause different traits, such as blood types.

Fruit color in a particular plant is controlled by a set of three quantitative trait loci (i.e., QTLs or polygenes), that work i
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

1/8

Explanation:

Given that the trihybrid parents have AaBbCc genotype for fruit color. The trait is a quantitative trait i.e. each dominant allele will have an additive effect on it. In this case, AaBbCc and AABBCC will not produce same fruit color because AaBbCc has only three loci contributing to the color while in AABBCC all the six loci are contributing to the color. For an offspring to be exactly similar to the AaBbCc parents it should have the same genotype of AaBbCc.

The probability of Aa to come from a cross between Aa and Aa is 2/4 or 1/2

The probability of Bb to come from a cross between Bb and Bb is 2/4 or 1/2

The probability of Cc to come from a cross between Cc and Cc is 2/4 or 1/2

So the collective probability of AaBbCc offspring from a cross between AaBbCc and AaBbCc parents would be=

1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/8

Hence, assuming no effects of the environment, 1/8 of the offspring will have the same fruit color phenotype as the trihybrid parent.
