Answer:
A diploid zygote is formed; Endosperm will form.
Explanation:
The fertilization in angiosperms (flowering plants) is known as double fertilization. In this process, two male gametes or sperms are involved where one sperm fertilizes the ovum or egg cell and forms a diploid zygote that develops into an embryo while the other sperm fertilizes two polar nuclei and forms a triploid cell that develops into the endosperm.
The female reproductive structure of a flower includes stigma, style, and ovary. During pollination, the pollen grain attaches to the stigma where it begins to germinate and forms a pollen tube that grows into the style and reaches the ovary. It enters the ovary and penetrates an opening in the ovule called the micropyle. The generative cell in the pollen grain travels through the pollen tube and divides to form two sperms that enter into the ovule.
Usually, six cells (three antipodal cells, two synergid cells, and one egg cell) and two polar central nuclei are present in an unfertilized ovule. Here, a process known as syngamy occurs, where one haploid sperm fertilizes the haploid egg cell or ovum and forms a diploid zygote. It later grows into an embryo. The other haploid sperm fuses with the two haploid polar nuclei to form a triploid nucleus that develops into the endosperm (nutrient-rich tissue) which provides nourishment to the growing embryo. Later, the fertilized ovule forms the seed and the ovary develops into the fruit which envelops and protects the seed.
Learning that occurs
when an organism makes a connection between two events is called "Associative
learning".<span>
The process involves associating various details or events to
learn a particular fact or information. For example one cannot imagine one eye
of his/her father, whenever he/she will imagine the whole face of their father
will make sense to mind and not single eye.</span>
I think this is B: Yellow Flower Color
I think phenotypes focus on the <u>physical characteristics</u> rather than the alleles and genes (genotypes).
Answer:
1/16
Explanation:
Sickle-cell disease is caused by a homozygous recessive genotype <em>dd</em>.
A man and a woman both heterozygous Dd will have the following offspring:
The probability of having a <em>dd</em> child with Sickle-cell disease is 1/4. Each time they have children the gamete combination is random, so the genotype of the second child is independent from the genotype of the first child.
According to rules of probability, if two events are independent from each other, the probability of both happening is calculated by multiplying the individual probabilities of each.
Therefore the probability of having the first two children with the disease is 1/4 x 1/4 = 1/16.
The factor that will prevent the species from becoming an invasive one is predation.
If the species of fish introduced is an apex predator, there will be no organisms present to keep the population of the fish in check. Moreover, if the introduced species has a selective advantage over those that it shares the same niche with, then it is more likely to oust these species from the food chain by consuming all of their resources.
