Answer:

This question lacks options, the options are:

A. All 270 tall plants were heterozygous

B. All 270 tall plants were homzygous.

C. Only 90 plants were homzygous.

D. All dwarf plants were homzygous.

The answer is D.

Explanation:

This question involves a single gene coding for height in pea plants. The allele for tallness (T) is dominant over that of dwarfness (t). This means that a dwarf plant can only be homzygous recessive (tt) while a tall plant can either be homzygous (TT) or heterozygous (Tt).

According to the question, two tall heterozygous pea plants were crossed i.e. Tt × Tt. Based on this cross, a phenotypic ratio of 3:1 is expected, which is in accordance with the 270 tall plants and 90 dwarf plants (360 total) that was obtained in the cross. Since dwarfism in pea plants is a recessive trait, this means that all the dwarf plants produced in this cross (90) were homzygous (tt).

A bird is flying over a field. What will most likely happen if a toxin causes the
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

B. The bird will stop flying because it will quickly use up its remaining

energy.

Explanation:

This is because the mitochondria is known as the power house of cells. Oxidative phosphorylation takes place in this organelle and it involves the conversion of ADP to ATP through the hydrogen ions(protons).

When the hydrogen ion channel is blocked, energy production in cells stop.

This is why the bird will stop flying as it would have used up its remaining energy and won’t have a new one to use to continue flying.

What occurs if a t cell binds to an antigen and the t cell does not receive a co-stimulatory signal?
tresset_1 [31]
The correct answer is that "the T cell enters a state of anergy".

The activation of T cells requires two signals: (1) antigen specific signal presented by an antigen presenting cell (either a macrophage or a dendritic cell) that activates t cell receptors and (2) co-stimulatory signals that is not antigen specific but rather found in the plasma membrane of the antigen presenting cell (i.e. CD28). In the absence of a co-stimulatory signal, the t cell will enter a state of anergy or the inability to produce an immune response toward an offending antigen.
