Answer:

Answer is False.

Explanation:

The movement of molecules or materials through or across the cell membrane, usually from a lower concentration to a higher concentration, which requires the use or consumption of energy, is known as active transport.

The energy required by this process is in form of Adenosine triphosphate, ATP. Example is sodium - potassium pump.

How does energy from the sun affect the motion of molecules in a gas compared to molecules in a liquid?

suter [353]

Answer:

Molecules of gas starts movement when they get energy from the sun in the form of heat.

Explanation:

Molecules of gas absorbed heat energy coming from sun. This heat energy is converted into kinetic energy due to which gas molecule moves faster. Volume of gas molecules also increases due to expansion of molecules by the absorption of heat energy. So more space is occupied by gas molecule as compared to liquid molecules.

In clover plants, the pattern on the leaves is determined by a single gene with multiple alleles that are related in a dominance

igomit [66]

Answer:

The correct answer is -

a. 7

b. 7 (p1p1, p1p2, p1p3, p1p4, p1p5, etc

c. p7 is abundant

Explanation:

According the question the dominance of the big leaves is p7 > p6 >p5 >p4 >p3 >p2 >p1 where 1 represent least dominance and 7 represent most dominance

let represent the phenotype with the numbers 1 to 7 and genotype with a combination of these numbers so the genotype in respect of phenotype would be :

p7p7,p7p6, p7p5, p7p4, p7p3, p7p2, p7p1 - most dominant 7

p6p6, p6p5, p6p4, p6p3, p6p2, p6p1 - 6

p5p5, p5p4, p5p3, p5p2, p5p1 - 5

p4p4, p4p3, p4p2, p4p1 - 4

p3p3, p3p2, p3p1 - 3

p2p2, p2p1 - 2

p1p1- 1 least dominant

Thus, there are 28 different combinations or patterns of genotypes. 7 phenotypes patterns.

The set of all populations inhabiting a certain area is called a(n):

zheka24 [161]

A community refers to the total number of populations that inhabit a specific location or area. This is part of the levels of organization of life. Arranged from the least complex to most complex it falls 8th in the category. Below are the organization of life:<span>

a. Organelles - the basic part of a living organism. It refers to the different structures of the cell, whether prokaryotic or eukaryotic. (Ex. Mitochondria, nucleus)
b. Cells - building blocks of life that are composed of different molecules responsible for the function of an organism. (Example: prokaryotic, eukaryotic cells)
c. Tissues - combinations of cells that carry out a specific function in an organism. (Example: Human skin)
d. Organs - collections of tissues that perform specific functions. (Ex. heart, lungs)
e. Organ Systems - composed of interconnected organs that function as a whole. Many organisms, particularly mamamals, are composed of organ systems. (Ex. respiratory, circulatory systems)
f. Organisms – individual entities that specifically make-up a population. (Ex. Each tree in the forest is an organism, each animal in sea is an organism)</span>
g. Population – species living within a specific location. It could be the same or different species that inhabit a place. (Ex. Birds are species in the forest as well as bears)
h. Community – refers to the total number of populations that inhabit a specific location. (Ex. All of the trees, insects, birds that inhabit the forest are a community)
i. Ecosystem – consists of all living things that function together as a group which also includes the non-living parts of the environment. (Ex. Rain water, nitrogen in the soil)
<span>j. Biosphere – the highest organization of life that consist of all the collection of ecosystems in the planet. It includes the land, air, water, even the atmosphere of the planet. </span>

What is the probability that a seed from a parent plant of genotype Rr will carry the r gene

daser333 [38]

The answer is 50 percent.

Parent plant of genotype Rr will in meiosis produce haploid gametes which will carry either R allele or r allele. Since there are only two possibilities R or r, the probability that seed will get r gene is 1 of 2. This can be presented as 1/2, which is 50%.
