1 answer:
Sveta_85 [38]3 years ago
4 0

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.

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

Birds and bats have homologous limbs because they are both ultimately derived from terrestrial tetrapods, but their flight mechanisms are only analogous, so their wings are examples of functional convergence.

Explain the process of succession for primary succession, from the earliest bare rock to a mature
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

Primary succession occurs when new land is formed or bare rock is exposed, providing a habitat that can be colonized for the first time. For example, primary succession may take place following the eruption of volcanoes, such as those on the Big Island of Hawaii. As lava flows into the ocean, new rock is formed.

A mutation that causes a yellowing of leaves in snapdragon plants was discovered in the early 1900s. Plants with this condition,
Serga [27]
Looking at the second cross, a 2:1 phenotypic ratio (instead of the typical 3:1) usually indicate a lethal homozygous genotype. Based on the question, it’s sensible to assume that a snapdragon homozygous for the aureal allele, which should have a even lesser chlorophyll count than the heterozygote, can’t even make it to the birth of the plant, thus the GAGA type never existed in reality. Under this assumption, we can deduce that the 2/3 aurea is of genotype GAG and the 1/3 green offspring of genotype GG. If a punnet square was pulled including the lethal genotype, it will be easily seen that the aureal allele is the dominant type. The first cross of genotype GG x GG conform to this conclusion. And the third is therefore a test cross between the homozygous recessive GG and the heterozygous GAG (aurea), with the result abiding our theory. Correct me if I was wrong, the GA allele is termed dominant negative as a single copy of it results in a deficit in chlorophyll amount. But anyway, the explanation above should give you an answer to the relationship between the G and GA allele.

Name something in science you would use a model to study, and explain why you would use a model to study it.
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer: I’m not sure how to answer this but from what I’m thinking is…

Answer:

"I would need to make a model of a Solar system because it is too large to study directly."

"I would need to make a model of a Cell because it is too small to study directly."

Explanation: I’m sure this is correct because it all adds up! A cell is small and a solar system is large. Hopefully this helps :)
