SashulF [63]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: A. A fertilized egg has a mixture of alleles from the two parents.

Sexual reproduction is a method of production of new organism by the fusion of gametes formed by two distinct parents. A single sperm fuses with the egg. The genes of the two parents combines in this process. During the gamete formation a pair of allele gets segregated from each parent and a single copy of allele is obtained from each parent. Therefore, a fertilized egg contains a mixture of alleles obtained from both parents this is the result of genetic variations in a species. The offspring is not exactly identical to either of the parents but exhibit genetic variations.

What factor may influence enzyme activity?
Arada [10]
There are many factors that may influence enzyme activity, such as: temperature, pH, enzyme concentration, substrate concentration, and the presence of inhibitors or activators. It can be temperature because it can be too high above optimal temperature will cause denaturation or too low below optimal temperature will cause a decrease in reaction rates and will eventually halt. It can be pH because enzyme's will denature if raised above or below optimal pH. It can be substrate concentration because of high levels of substrates will increase reaction rates to a point, however when becomes saturated, the reaction rate will become unaffected. Also, it can be inhibitors because of an agent that slows or interferes with a chemical action.

If the leaves of a geranium plant receive an adequate supply of raw materials, which graph shows how the rate of photosynthesis
Korolek [52]
I think the correct graph would have light intensity on the x-axis (because light intensity is the independent variable) and a measure of photosynthetic rate (either O2 evolution or CO2 consumption) on the y-axis (because the rate of photosynthesis is the dependent variable)... hope this helps
