Each kernel of corn receives one allele from
each parent for the traits of color and texture.
Option B
<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>
Corn kernels are actually the seeds of corn. Corn kernels are formed because of the fertilization of both the Pollen and the ovule of the corn plants. This pollens and the ovules are formed by means of meiosis which takes different alleles of the same gene from both the parents and both the chromosomes of each parents. This is why during meiosis the events of crossing over and independent assortment leads to the variation of characters into the offspring. This is why the kernel colours of the the same ear of the corn remains same. This is how the corn plant receives the the kernel colours from both the parents and their colours remain constant for one particular ear. Also the gene of texture is achieved from both the parents by means of meiosis just like the corn colour. So there also independently assorted.
Frameshift mutation affects codons downstream the point of mutation. The previous order of 3 nucleotide- sequences (codons) is consequently changed. This, therefore, changes the protein coded by the mRNA transcribed by the mutated DNA region. Frameshifts are mostly due to insertion or deletion mutations.
The E-coli bacteria is the correct answer
Correct answer: C). Sunlight is converted to chemical energy
Sunlight is used in the process of photosynthesis by the plants to make glucose and six molecules of oxygen.
During the process of photosynthesis plants capture sunlight with the help of chlorophyll pigments which are present in their leaves. The light energy trap by plant is used to change water and carbon dioxide into the form of sugar called as glucose.
This glucose is used by the plants as a energy to make cellulose and starch . Cellulose is used as the building material for cell wall and starch is stored in seeds and other parts of the plant as a food source which is used by heterotrophs as a food source.

Answer:
Option D.
Example of a species is a donkey and a horse mate to produce a mule that is sterile and is unable to produce babies.
Explanation:
- Species is the group of organisms that interbreed or have the potential of interbreeding in nature.
- Even if they look very different in appearance but interbreed then simply they are species.
- The organism that reproduce asexually cannot be mentioned under species.
- Some animals form naturally hybrid and mostly mate with their own groups.
- So donkey and horse mates to produce a new living, which is considered as the species.
