Which of the following creates variation through and random combining of genetic information?
aksik [14]

Answer:

B. mutations

Explanation

I believe this is the answer because even though mutations can be bad, there are also good as they can provide genetic variation to a population, which can result in the trait being passed to the offspring.

Plants maintain higher levels of phytochrome at their growing tips where phytochrome plays important roles in growth responses t
Naddika [18.5K]

Explanation:

Phytochrome is a protein with kinase activity present in plant organisms, whose function is to act as a photoreceptor mainly of red light (600-700nm) and distant red light (700-800nm), thanks to its chromophore. The phytochrome depending on the type of light detected can trigger different responses in the plant, such as flowering, germination, growth as an escape response to the shadow -development of epicotyls at night and cotyledons during the day-, regulation of expression of metabolic activity during day and night (circadian rhythms).

Phytochromes were discovered in the fifties as part of an investigation on the effect of light on the germination of lettuce seeds. It was observed that the seeds that germinated in the dark did not reach 20%; On the contrary, the germination percentage was maximum when the seeds were irradiated with a pulse of red light (R). It was also found that subsequent irradiation with a pulse of distant red light (RL) nullified the inducing effect of red light, preventing germination.

Alternating irradiation with light R and RL (R, R + RL, R + RL + R, R + RL + R + RL, etc.) showed that the last color applied determined the germination of the seeds and that the light red was the stimulating factor of the process and, its inhibitor, the distant red light.

In search of an explanation of such phenomena, the existence of a pigment was proposed, which they called phytochrome, which absorbed the red light. The phytochrome in question, after absorbing red light, became a way capable of absorbing distant red radiation; form that turned to its initial condition after performing said absorption. The hypothesis found experimental support in the early sixties with the purification, from extracts of cereal seedlings, of a protein endowed with the predicted characteristics. Phytochromes are soluble proteins found in the seeds, leaves, stems, roots and other organs of the plant.

Biochemically, phytochrome is a protein with a Bilin chromophore.

spin [16.1K]

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

A paraphyletic group can be defined as the group of organism that includes the ancestors but not all of its descendants.

There are three kinds of phylogenetic groups that can be understood by the help of the diagram.

The phylogeny can be defined as the diagram which shows the evolutionary relationship of one organism from another.

Other groups are monophyletic groups, parsimonious et cetera which shows different evolutionary relationship with organisms.

Match each atom to the corresponding number of electrons it will steal or give away.
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

1. Fluorine (7 electrons) => c. steals 1 electron

2. Calcium (2 electrons) => a. gives away 2 electrons

3. Oxygen (6 electrons) => d. steals 2 electrons

4. Lithium (1 electron) => e. gives away 1 electron

5. Xenon (8 electrons) => b. neither gives away nor steals any electron

Explanation:

Given the following valence electrons of the atoms listed above, each atom can be matched to its corresponding number of electrons it can steal or give away as they form bonds and attain a stable state:

1. Fluorine (7 electrons) => this will steal 1 electron from another atom to attain a stable state when it comes to make the number of electrons 8.

2. Calcium with 2 valence electrons, will give away this 2 electrons in its outer shell to be stable and form bond with another atom that will accept these 2 electrons.

3. Oxygen with 2 valence electrons, will steal 2 electrons to make the electrons in its outer shell 8, as it bonds with another atom to become stable.

4. Lithium will give away 1 electron to become stable when it combines.

5. Xenon with 8 electrons in its outer shell is in a stable state and kind of inert. It doesn't need to receive or steal any electron from or to any other atom in this state.

solmaris [256]

Answer: DNA

Explanation:

A chromosome is a thread-like material with a long structure found in the cell nucleus. It mainly contains DNA and proteins. Due to the presence of DNA in chromosomes, it carries several genes.

The total number of chromosomes in human cell is 46: 44 are non-sex chromosomes while 2 are sex chromosomes
