Answer:
Sharp-spined cactus
Explanation:
Given, that N allele is required for the production of spine and S allele will produce sharp sines.
True breeding sharp spined cactus: NNSS
spineless cactus: nn__ ( we can't fix the allele for second gene since it has not been mentioned as true breeding )
Their progeny: NNSS X nn__ = NnS_
So the progeny is going to be sharp spined because both the dominant alleles N and S are present.
"Scarus frenatus" I think
Answer:
The correct answer is A. Tobacco mosaic virus
Explanation:
Virus can have DNA and RNA as its genetic material. Tobacco mosaic virus has RNA as its genetic material. Protein is not a genetic material because it is a product coded by genetic material.
So a hybrid can be made only when the genetic material of two different organisms is mixed not two different biomolecules. Therefore when RNA from the tobacco mosaic virus is mixed with the protein from a DNA virus the result would be a tobacco mosaic virus only.
Answer:
Adhesion and surface tension
Explanation:
Capillary action is the tendency of a liquid to rise or fall in a narrow tube. Two main terms are required to explain capillary action; adhesion and cohesion.
Cohesion is the force of attraction between molecules of the same kind while adhesion is the force of attraction between molecules of different kinds.
Forces of adhesion causes water to move up in a capillary tube. The water is held as it rises by surface tension forces acting on the circumference of the meniscus. The water keeps rising in the tube until the weight of the water drawn up in the tube balances the surface tension acting at the top column of the water.
