I would say B) <span>The shoot is positively phototropic and negatively gravitropic; the root is positively gravitropic and negatively phototropic.
This is because the shoot of the plant is attracted towards the sun, as the chloroplasts in the leaves need sunlight to make food. As well, the roots are attracted downward to absorb more water and minerals from the sun.

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.
Answer:
The leaf discs only float in bicarbonate solution and in the light environment.
Explanation:
The bicarbonate dissolves in water to produce a source of inorganic CO2 in the reaction:
NaHCO3 + H2O → H2CO3 + OH- + Na+
Then, the HCO3- undergoes fixation through several complex steps in order to form a carbohydrate or sugar. These store the converted solar energy in their bonds as chemical energy to be used in metabolism.
Photosynthesis is a chemical process, essential to plant and other primary producers producing energy. Energy in the form of glucose molecules is derived from solar or light energy, water, and inorganic carbon dioxide, while it releases oxygen (from the light reaction). The leaf discs float as O2 gas is produced, making them buoyant.
6CO2 + 6H20 + (energy) → C6H12O6 + 6O2
Carbon dioxide + water + energy= glucose + oxygen
The answer is C. hope this helps
Answer:
C.Both Gram positive and Gram negative cells would appear purple.
Explanation:
Gram staining is a technique used to differentiate bacteria to two main groups based on their difference in cell wall components.
Crystal violet, decolorizer(ethanol) and a counter stain are used.
Gram positive bacteria have a thicker peptidoglycan layer hence they will retain the crystal Violet stain even after decolorization. They will stain purple
Gram negative will stain pink due to losing the initial stain and taking up the counter stain after decolorization.
Therefore, if water is used instead of ethanol. Both bacteria will retain crystal violet stain in their cell wall.
