Answer:
The mitochondria is the location in the cell where most of cellular respiration takes place, although a small amount of cellular respiration does take place in the cytoplasm. The mitochondria is often called the power house of the cell because it is involved with making energy for the cell.
Answer:like when you have a sore throat or a kind of common sickness
Explanation:
CORRECT ANSWERS: “Eye color is controlled by many genes” and “Eye color has a polygenic inheritance pattern”
***These two answer choices are actually saying the same thing. (poly = many, so polygenic just means a trait is controlled by many genes) These are the best answers because traits that are controlled by several genes have many different phenotypes (traits) that can result (ex: blue eyes, green eyes, brown eyes, hazel eyes...etc).
WRONG ANSWERS: “Eye color is controlled by only one pair of genes”
***The trait is most likely controlled by more than one pair of genes because there are three different phenotypes discussed in the problem. There are inheritance patterns where one gene can cause three phenotypes (complete dominance and incomplete dominance), but these produce a combination of the traits (brown AND blue eyes...doesn’t make much sense) or a mix of the traits (whatever color brown mixed with blue gives you...still probably not green). Anyways, it’s a feasible answer but definitely not the BEST.
“Eye color is not an inherited trait”
***All traits are determined by the genetic code we inherit from our parents. The way our cellular mechanisms express of those traits can vary and be determined by environmental factors, but this is still by far the least accurate statement.
“Eye color is inherited from only one parent”
***For any given gene we receive one allele (copy of that gene) from each parent. Therefore, all of our traits are inherited from both parents. Again, the expression of those traits varied based on patterns of inheritance, environmental factors...etc, but this is another very poor answer choice.
The answer is binary fission.
This happens when during the replication of chromosomes of prokaryotes. Similar to mitosis, it divides itself and reproduces asexually. Many bacteria use this kind of process to produce more of this kind of organism in equal sizes.

<span>Lithosphere includes all the Earth known to us: the mountains, the ground we walk on, etc. It's solid - else we would not be able to walk on it! the more inner layers of Earth are liquid, but lithosphere, the outermost layer is solid. The tectonic plates are not floating on the lithosphere - they form the lithosphere! So the correct answer is A - it is solid and composed of crust and upper mantle (outer later)</span>
