Answer:

True is the correct option.

Explanation:

Minerals are the naturally occurring inorganic solids.

They have usually solid, crystal and inorganic structures.

Minerals are formed naturally by the geological method.

They are inorganic, as they are not formed from the living substance.

They have definite chemical composition, which means there chemical formula is specific.

Minerals have a crystal structure that is atom which forms the mineral are connected in a pattern to each other.

Thus this statement is correct Minerals are naturally occurring, inorganic solids that have a crystalline structure and a definite chemical composition.

Plants and animals that lack color are commonly called albinos. In corn plants, green (G) is dominant to albino (g). A student
Fittoniya [83]

(B) 25% GG, 50% Gg, and 25% gg

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Green is dominant and is coded by G

Albino is recessive and is coded by g

Two corn plants that are heterozygous for color are crossed.

The heterozygous condition of the plant would be Gg.

The cross is shown in the table attached.

According to the punnett square drawn,

The genotypic ratio is 1 : 2 : 1 (GG : Gg : gg)

                                 = 25% GG , 50% Gg , 25% gg

Phenotypic ratio = 3 : 1 ( green : albino)

                           = 75% green, 25% albino

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

 Proteoglycans are a major component of compact connective tissues but are relatively unimportant in watery tissues such as the jellylike substance in the interior of the eye.

Explanation:

these are protein that is divided into two classes which are  called large ans small Proteoglycans.

The large proteoglycans has a large number of highly sulfated glycosaminoglycan side-chains that tends to hold water and whereby making the tendon to resist compression while the  small proteoglycans are known to have a relationship with collagen fibrils which are known to regulate collagen fibril diameters. they help in signal regulation  usually  from the angle of intracellular compartments. the are known great for their large diversity especially in terms of different cores and different numbers of GAGs with different lengths and composition.
