Answer:

The correct answer is - cell wall made up of cellulose that makes it crunchy.

Explanation:

In plant-based foods, the outer membrane is a cell wall that provides structure and supports the plant to stand erect and protect from the outer environment. The cell wall is mainly composed of cellulose that is a carbohydrate which is comparatively crunchy or tough to the animal protein with a fatty cell membrane that makes it chewier than the crunchy.

The composition of the protective layers of the plant cels and animal cell causes this difference in their texture.

Hoochie [10]

<em>The proportion of the offspring from the cross that will have white flowers is 7/16.</em>

The presence of anthocyanin which determines purple coloration is conditioned by the C_ and P_ alleles. It means that the absence of one or both of C and P will result in white flowers.

Two plants, each with CcPp are crossed:

CcPp   x   CcPp

Offpring

1 CCPP - purple

2 CCPp - purple

2 CcPP - purple

4 CcPp - purple

2 Ccpp - white

1 CCpp - white

1 ccPP -  white

2 ccPp - white

1 ccpp -  white

Proportion of offspring with white flowers = 7/16

Proportion of offspring with purple flower = 9/16

<em>See the attached image for the Punnet's square analysis of the cross.</em>

Answer:

Bad form.

Explanation:

Bad form of ozone causes breathing difficulty due to its availability near the surface of earth and its composition. Ozone is not emitted directly into the air, it is created due to the chemical reactions between oxides of nitrogen and volatile organic compounds. When these pollutants react with each other in the presence of sunlight, ozone is produced which leads to difficulty of breathing as well as damages the vegetation so this ozone is considered as bad ozone.
