Answer:
The correct answer is c. 3/16.
Explanation:
In the given question two traits being studied, the traits are flower color and seed shape.
This is a typical Mendel’s dihybrid cross. According to the question purple colour (P) and round seed (R) are dominant traits.
When heterozygous purple-flowered (Pp), round-seeded (Rr) individuals are crossed, four different types of plants are produced phenotypically in the ratio 9:3:3:1.Out of 16 offspring, 9 are purple flowered, round seeded pea plants, 3 pea plants are white-flower with round seed, 3 are purple- flower with wrinkled seed and 1 pea plant is white-flowered with wrinkled seed pea plant is produced.
Answer:
1. Supplying
2. Taking
Explanation:
Food chain is a linear relationship between organisms that depicts the flow of energy from one organism to another. In a food chain, organisms are arranged in trophic levels where arrows pointing to the right direction (➡) are used to show that the organim the arrow is pointing to eats the organism behind it.
Hence, according to this question, arrows in a food chain point from the organism SUPPLYING the energy to the organism TAKING the energy.
<h2>The given statement is true</h2>
Explanation:
Iron absorption occurs in the duodenum and upper jejunum of small intestine
- At physiological pH ferrous iron is rapidly oxidized to the insoluble ferric form
- Gastric acid lowers the pH in the duodenum which enhances the solubility and uptake of ferric iron
- Once iron gets inside the enterocyte it can be stored as ferritin;Ferritin is a hollow spherical protein which helps in storage and regulation of iron levels within the body
- Ferritin molecule have ferroxidase activity which helps in the mobility of Fe2+ out of the enterocyte by ferroportin
- Transferrin is the major iron transport protein which transports iron through blood
- Fe3+ binds to transferrin so Fe2+ transported through ferroportin must be oxidized to Fe3+
- Fe2+ needs to be oxidized first so that it can be transported through ferroportin
- Once iron gets inside the cell it can be used for various cellular processes
Answer:
Ego
Explanation:
In 1923, Sigmund Freud's personality theory was structured into three different parts viz: Id, ego and superego
The id is the instinctive and unconscious part of the personality which responds directly to urges, needs and desires. The id operates on the pleasure principle that every wishful impulse should be satiated instantly regardless of the resulting effect.
The ego is the part that mediates between the unreasonable id and societal beliefs. It is the reasoning and decision-making component of the psyche.
The superego is the part that acts as a self critical conscience, reflecting the social standards that has been learnt
In this scenario involving Cecil, the id part of his personality is responsible for the sexual attraction to his English teacher but the ego part of his personality is making him realize that is socially unreasonable for his teacher to respond to his sexual advances. His ego, which operates with the reality principle is restraining him from acting from his feelings in consideration of social realities.
Therefore, his ego is restraining him from expressing his feelings of sexual attraction (Id) considering societal consequences.
