osed to high temperatures (around 50 degrees Celsius), the overall rate of glucose production by photosynthesis decreased.

Hello
We know that biological processes are carried out by organic catalysts known as enzymes. Enzymes are protein molecules that operate over a range of conditions, and a specific set of those conditions are ideal for them. However, in most organisms that are not adapted to withstand high temperatures, the enzymes cannot operate beyond 50 degrees Celsius. This is because their structure starts to deform due to the breakage of bonds within the molecule. The break down is cause by the energy supplied in the form of temperature. An enzyme's structure is essential for it to carry out its task and is made specifically for the molecule it is to act on, the substrate. If the structure is deformed, the enzyme cannot carry out its function. Therefore, the enzymes producing glucose denature and glucose production decreases.

The words for the descriptions are food chain, trophic level, energy pyramid, high diversity, low diversity, etc. respectively.

<h3>Ecology</h3>
  • The feeding relationship that exists among organisms is termed the food chain.

  • Each step in the transfer of energy and matter in a community is termed the trophic level.

  • A community or group of living organisms that live in and interact with each other in a specific environment is termed an ecosystem.

  • A diagram that compares the energy used by producers, primary consumers, and other trophic levels is known as the energy pyramid.

  • An ecosystem with a high number of species is said to be of high diversity.

  • An ecosystem with a few prominent species and a low number of other species is said to be of low diversity.

  • Organisms that feed on and break down organic matter are said to be decomposers.

  • Organisms that can make their own food in the ecosystem are termed, producers.

  • Animals that feed on flesh are called carnivores.

  • A system of interlocking and interdependent food chains is called a food web.

A woman with normal BRCA alleles has a child with a man who has one mutated BRCA1 allele. What is the probability that the child
grigory [225]

Answer:

50%

Explanation:

According to the given information, the woman has normal BRCA alleles while the man carries one copy of the mutated BRCA allele (BRCA1). A diploid organism such as human beings can have two BRCA alleles. A child gets one BRCA allele from the mother and the other from the father.

The child of the couple would get one normal allele from the woman. However, with respect to the BRCA allele, the man would form two types of gametes in equal proportion. The 50% of his gametes would have the mutated BRCA1 allele while the rest 50% would carry the normal BRCA allele. Therefore, the man can transmit either normal or mutated BRCA allele to the child. So, there are 50% chances for the child to get the mutated allele.
