Answer:

2. cell wall

Explanation:

The Cell wall is a thick layer made up of peptidoglycan that structurally supports and protects the cell. The cell wall is located just outside the semi permeable membrane. It give rigidity to the cell.

The cell wall also serves as a sieve or filter that allows or prevents the movement of molecule in or out of the semi permeable membrane.

An hypotonic solution is a solution that has a higher quantity of water when compared the quantity of solute dissolved in the water and this causes the solution to have a lower osmotic potential.

When a bacteria is growing in an hypotonic surrounding environment, there is a large amount of water present outside the cell. The cell wall of the bacteria serves as barrier and prevents the flow of water into the cell and this would prevent the cell wall of the bacteria from bursting open due to the rigidity of the cell wall.

Any bacteria that lacks a cell wall and is place in an hypotonic surrounding environment would swell and eventually burst open due the movement of water from hypotonic surrounding environment into the bacteria.

A ____ is the underlying combination of genetic material present (but outwardly invisible) in an organism.
Alex

Answer:

D (Genotype)

Explanation:

A genotype is the genetic make up of an organism i.e. what the genetic material

of an organism constitutes. Genotype describes the set of genes contained in an organism's genome. According to Mendel, an organism receives two forms of genes called ALLELE for a trait, one from each parent. The genotype of a specific gene coding for a trait is represented by each pair of allele for that trait.

Although the genotype of an organism is outwardly invisible i.e. cannot be seen, but it determines the phenotype of that organism i.e. the outward appearance. For example, if a plant receives T and T alleles coding for tallness, from each parent. The genotype of that plant for the specific height trait will be (TT). Hence, the TT genotype although invisible but controls the tallness of the plant.

In photosynthesis, the set of reactions that use NADPH and ATP formed in the light-capturing reactions to drive the fixation of
Luda [366]

Answer:

The correct answer will be- light independent reaction or Calvin cycle

Explanation:

The process of photosynthesis takes place in the two phases: light-dependent and light-independent phase.

The light-dependent phase form NADPH  and NADPH which are utilized during the light-independent phase to synthesise glucose molecule.

The light-independent phase occurs in the cytosol or stroma of the chloroplast in dark conditions which help synthesize the glucose molecules. The light-independent reaction is also known as the Calvin cycle which forms the glucose molecules in three steps- carboxylation, reduction and regeneration.

Thus, the Calvin cycle is the correct answer.
