Answer: There will be one homozygous straight wing, two heterozygous straight wings, and one homozygous curly wing.
Explanation: A true breeding pair means that both parents are heterozygous (Ww). Set up a Punnett square with two Ww parents. The offspring will be 1 WW (homozygous straight), 2 Ww (heterozygous straight), and 1 ww (homozygous curly).
The place in your body is called the Lungs.
1. meiosis II is quite similar to mitosis, in that the sister chromosomes are split during anaphase II in both processes
2. the stages of cell division (prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase) are practically the same in both meiosis and mitosis - there are only a couple of tiny differences between them
Answer:
B) It breaks down polysaccharides such as starch.
Explanation:
Polysaccharides are long chains of monosaccharides like glucose joined together with glycosidic linkages. While plants can simply make glucose via photosynthesis, animals rely on glucose sourced from their diet. In animals, glucose is stored as glycogen; however, plant storage polysaccharides like starch are regularly broken down through digestion using enzymes.
Enzymes are proteins which catalyze chemical reactions like the breakdown of large polysaccharides. Alpha amylase, an enzyme produced in the pancreas, is also found in human saliva; it catalyzes the hydrolysis, or breakdown of starch into glucose. Amylase acts on polysaccharides bonds at random points along the chain by splitting the α 1-4 glycosidic bonds. This produces maltose, dextrin and glucose; this glucose is used in ATP synthesis via <em>respiration, ethyl alcohol fermentation and lactic fermentation</em>.
