Which wavelengths of light drive the highest rates of photosynthesis? Select the two best answers.

Biology
1 answer:
Lilit [14]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

  • 400-450 nm
  • 550-700 nm

Explanation:

Chlorophyll pigments (mainly chlorophyll a and b) absorb the red and blue spectrum of visible light in the electromagnetic spectrum for photosynthesis. This is why leaves appear green (and occasionally orange) because this visible light portion is not absorbed. The blue light absorbed by leaves ranges between 400 – 450 nm while the red light ranges between 500 nm and 700 nm.

Who are the three main groups involved in natural resources and what are their roles?
Flauer [41]

Biotic natural resources also include fossil fuels such as coal and petroleum which are formed from organic matter that has decayed. Abiotic: these resources come from non-living and non-organic material. Examples of these resources include land, fresh water, air, and heavy metals (gold, iron, copper, silver, etc.).

Given an individual who is heterozygous for a recessive disease (i.e., the wildtype allele is dominant), explain how a deletion
omeli [17]

Answer:

Let us consider that A signifies the dominant allele and letter a signifies the recessive allele. The dominant allele, A would demonstrate normal phenotype, on the other hand, the recessive allele, a would be accountable for the disease. The possibilities of genotypes and phenotypes would be AA demonstrating normal homozygous individual, Aa demonstrating normal heterozygous individual, and aa demonstrating homozygous individual carrying the disease.  

Based on the given question, the genotype of the individual would be Aa, due to the existence of the dominant allele, normal phenotype would be demonstrated by the individual. In case if the deletion of A allele takes place from the genotype, the left a allele would possess the tendency to show its effect and the expression of the recessive phenotype will take place.  

Hemizygous refers to the condition in which only one allele is found in a diploid organism, and the organism within which it takes place is known as hemizygote.
