Answer:

Because A is co-dominant to B and O is recessive, so the genotype is the same as the phenotype. But A can have 2 genotypes because A can mask a recessive allele, which makes the phenotype A. B can also mask a recessive allele, which makes the phenotype B.

Examples

AO (genotype) = A (phenotype)

BO (genotype) = B (phenotype)

We think of termites as insects that “eat” wood. In fact, however, termites rely on a variety of eukaryotic and prokaryotic gut

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

Symbiosis

Explanation:

Termites are the important insects due to its role in in nutrient recycling in the terrestrial ecosystems. Termites eat wood. The wood contain cellulose, a complex carbohydrate which is cannot be digested by most insects such as termites. For the breakdown and digestion of wood is carried out by the microorganisms present in the hindgut of the termites. The microbes live in the gut as a symbiont. The microbes break down cellulose into simple sugars and fatty acids which are easily absorbed into the cells of the termites.

Why is smooth ER considered smooth?

Rough ER is dotted with ribosomes which give it a "rough" appearance. Smooth ER doesn't contain ribosomes. :) Hope this helps!

Sort the molecules in the glycolysis pathway based on whether they are intermediates or products in the first half of the pathwa

topjm [15]

Intermediates in the first half of glycolysis are: Glucose - 6-Phosphate, Fructose- 6- Phosphate, Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate, Glyceraldehyde-3-Phosphate, Dihydroxy acetone phosphate.

Intermediates in the second half of glycolysis are: 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate, 3-phosphoglycerate, 2-phosphoglycerate, phosphoenolpyruvate.

Glycolysis is the process of breakdown of glucose that occurs in all the organisms of the earth whether aerobic or anaerobic. It is a 10 step process that occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell.

Phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) is the last intermediate of the glycolysis process which converts into pyruvic acid by the action of the enzyme pyruvate kinase. This step results in the synthesis of 2 ATP. The compound's role can also be seen in photosynthesis in C4 plants.
