Which of the following pairs accurately connects a macromolecule to its monomer?
Mice21 [21]

A monomer can be defined as the molecule that is capable of binding in long chains. The monomers bind together to form different polymers by the process of polymerization.

The monomer of carbohydrate is monosacchride. The monomer of proteins is amino acid, and that of lipids is glycerol and fatty acids. These three macromolecules are wrongly paired in the question.

The monomer of nucleic acids is nucleotide. This is correctly matched.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option B - nucleic acids - nucleotides'.

2. DNA for all organisms is composed of the same parts. What makes your DNA different
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Humans are 99% identical and what makes each one of us nunique is like 0.1% of our genome and the human genome is up of three billion base pairs which mean 0.1% is still equal to three million base pairs. In those three million differences lies the changes that gives you the green eyes instead of blue eyes etc.

Antennae development in ants is thought to be a trait controlled by maternal effect. In ants, zig-zag coils are dominant to curl
Schach [20]

Answer:

a. Her mother has zig-zag antennae.

b. Her brother has zig-zag antennae.

Explanation:

<u>Available data</u>:

  • Antennae development ⇒ controlled by maternal effect
  • Zig-zag coils are dominant
  • Curly coils are recessive
  • A female develops zig-zag coils

Maternal effect: Refers to the influence of the “environment provided by the mother” on the progeny phenotype. The mother´s genotype directly determines the progeny phenotype. Even though the progeny has a different genotype, it is irrelevant, as well as the father´s genotype or phenotype. This means that no matter what is the genotype of the offspring, all of them will express the same phenotype as their mother. The maternal effect is commonly seen in insects and might be seen in some mammals and plants.

So, if a female has zig-zag coils, this means that the mother also has zig-zag antennae and that all the brothers and sisters of this female ant have zig-zag antennae, independently of their genotype.

a. Her mother has zig-zag antennae ⇒ True. The trait is inherited from the mother.  

b. Her brother has zig-zag antennae ⇒ True. The whole progeny will express sig-zag antennae.

c. This female carries the zig-zag allele ⇒ Not necessarily.

d. This female's offspring will have zig-zag antennae ⇒ Depends on it´s genotype
