A certain cultivated herb is one of a group of closely related plants that thrive in soil with high concentrations of metals tha

t are toxic to most other plants. Agronomists studying the herb have discovered that it produces large amounts of histidine, an amino acid that, in test-tube solutions, renders these metals chemically inert. Possibly, therefore, the herb’s high histidine production is what allows it to grow in metal-rich soils, a hypothesis that would gain support if: ______.
A. histidine is found in all parts of the plant—roots, stem, leaves, and flowers.
B. the herb’s high level of histidine production is found to be associated with an unusually low level of production of other amino acids.
C. others of the closely related group of plants are also found to produce histidine in large quantities.
D. cultivation of the herb in soil with high concentrations of the metals will, over an extended period, make the soil suitable for plants to which the metals are toxic.
E. the concentration of histidine in the growing herb declines as the plant approaches maturity

Traits controlled by organellar dna do not show mendelian inheritance because
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

In mendelian inheritance, the alleles for a gene show normal dominant-recessive relationship. Chromosomes also show crossover due to which new random combination of traits is possible in the offspring. This crossover takes place between homologous chromosomes during meiosis I.

Organellar DNA like the ones present in mitochondria and chloroplast do not follow mendelian inheritance because unlike nuclear chromosomes they do not have cross over events. There is no orderly segregation of alleles during meiosis. Traits controlled by them are usually inherited as it is and usually it is from the maternal parent because paternal gamete like sperm does not contain mitochondria.
