Answer:

The correct answer is - A wood-frame house built on bedrock.

Explanation:

An earthquake would damage a steel-frame building built on sediment in comparison of a wooden house built on the bedrock due to the fact that waves of an earthquake do not go through solid things easily such as the earth core or the bedrock land rather than reclaimed land or sediments.

So, the bedrock will shake less than the hotel or heave building built on sediment. A house that made up of wooden-frame would shake only whereas the steel-frame might damage more.

Which of the following would be true of a plant heterozygous for a single gene controlling flower color? (Assume complete domina
Rasek [7]

Answer:

C: If crossed with another heterozygous plant, the majority of progeny will have the dominant flower color.

Explanation:

Assuming the gene is represented an allele A, purple colour can be AA or Aa while white colour will be aa.

If a heterozygous plant Aa is crossed with another heterozygous Aa, the genotype of the progeny will be AA, Aa, Aa and aa.

Since allele A is dominant over a, it thus means that the phenotype of the progeny will be 3 purple and 1 white flowered plant.

<em>Hence, the majority of the progeny will have the dominant (75%) flower colour.</em>

The correct option is C.

Which series lists the structural components of the light-dependent reactions in order, from innermost to outermost? (a.)chlorop
nikklg [1K]


The correct answer is (a)

Chlorophyll is contained within the thylakoid membrane. Stroma is the space between the thylakoid membrane and the chloroplast membrane. The outer most part is the double membrane in which the whole chloroplast is housed. It is like the walls of the house.

Chloroplasts are surrounded by this double membrane and contain a third inner membrane which is the thylakoid membrane. This membrane forms long folds within the organelle. In electron micrographs, thylakoid membranes appear like stacks of coins.
