If a particular gene is located on the Z chromosome of this lizard species, describe why a lizard with a ZW genotype has a great

er probability of expressing the recessive phenotype for the trait than a lizard with the ZZ genotype does?

Answer:

ZZ species will take more number of crosses to produce a recessive offspring.

Explanation:

Here Z seems to be the dominant allele.  A species having ZZ or homozygous dominant genotype shall not express the recessive phenotype until unless it has both recessive allele and this is not possible as of now or is dependent on the genotype of mating species and the number of generations of development.

If ZZ mates with WW, the offspring in F1 generation will have genotype ZW

However, if the offspring in the F1 generation are crossed then in next generation we could see organism with recessive phenotype i,e WW

ZW*ZW

ZZ, ZW, ZW, WW

While in case of organism having ZW type genotype, recessive phenotype will occur in the first generation cross with the ZW.

How does the photosynthetic reaction center differ from the chorophyll molecules in the antenna complex?
o-na [289]

Answer:

Photosynthetic reaction center differ from the chlorophyll molecules in the antenna complex by the presence  and absence of core pigment and accessory pigment.

Explanation:

Photosynthetic reaction center contain core pigment known as chlorophyll  A which can aborb wavelength of sunlight not more than 700 nm in case of Photosystem 1 and the core chlorophyll pigment of Photosystem 2 absorb light having wavelength of 680nm or less than that.

                           Antenna complex or light harvesting complex  such as chlorophyll b ,Carotenoid,Xanthophyll absorb light energy from sunlight and transfer that light energy to photosynthetic reaction center by resonance energy transfer so that the photosynthetic reaction center uses the same(light energy) in form of chemical energy to out the further reactions of photosynthesis.

Approximately how many gallons of water are used per year in a typical home? 1 million gallons 500,000 gallons 150,000 gallons 1
Advocard [28]

146 gallons of water

<h2>Further explanation </h2>

The human need for water (for drinking) is 8 glasses a day or about 2 liters. 1 gallon usually contains 19-20 liters. One house usually consists of 4 people <em>(father, mother, brother, sister). </em>

If one person consumes 2 liters of water, then one house will consume about 8 liters a day.

Which will take up 2 gallons in 5 days.

1 Year = 365 days

365 days : 5 days <em>(2 gallons)</em> = 73 <em>(gallon water refill frequency) </em>

73 x 2 = 146

So, within 1 year the level of gallon water consumption in an ordinary house consumes 146 gallons of water.

That is the calculation of the use of gallons for consumption, <em>not for bathing, washing, pooping, urinating, etc. </em>
