Answer:

3) passive transport

Explanation:

Passive transport is a type of cellular transport that does not require the use of energy to move substances (i.e., ions and molecules) across biological membranes. Passive transport uses concentration gradients to move substances across cell membranes, thereby transporting them from regions of high concentration to regions of low concentration. Passive transport can be divided into 1-osmosis (i.e., movement of solvents), 2-diffusion (i.e., movement of solutes), and 3-facilitated diffusion (i.e., movement of molecules with help of protein channels or carriers), and 4-filtration (i.e., movement of water by using a pressure gradient).

What is the function of the mitochondria within a cell?
REY [17]
Mitochondria produce ATP through process of cellular respiration—specifically, aerobic respiration, which requires oxygen. The citric acid cycle, or Krebs cycle, takes place in the mitochondria. This cycle involves the oxidation of pyruvate, which comes from glucose, to form the molecule acetyl-CoA. Acetyl-CoA is in turn oxidized and ATP is produced.

a male guinea pig is homozygous dominant for hair texture and hair length. A female guinea pig is heterozygous for hair texture
nekit [7.7K]

If we talk about guinea pigs, the trait of hair length is controlled by a gene with two alleles.

Allele for short hair (S) is dominant on the allele for the long hair (s).

The texture of hair texture  is controlled by a gene with two alleles. It can be rough or smooth, and the allele for rough hair (R) is dominant on allele for smooth hair (r).

Now coming towards the question:

  • A female guinea pig is heterozygous for hair texture and homozygous recessive for hair length.

Phenotype of the female will be Rough and long hair.

  • A male guinea pig is homozygous dominant for hair texture and hair length.

Phenotype of the male will be Rough and short hair.

Hope it help!

According to most scientists, green algae are the ancestors of plants. Which statement best supports that belief? A) both have c
Tresset [83]

The statement that best supports that belief is “both have cell wall made of cellulose, store food material as starch, and have chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b”.

 

The green algae are a large, informal grouping of algae consisting of the Chlorophyte and Charophyte algae, which are now placed in separate Divisions. The land plants or Embryophytes are thought to have emerged from the Charophytes.

 

The correct answer between all the choices given is the first choice or letter A. I am hoping that this answer has satisfied your query and it will be able to help you in your endeavor, and if you would like, feel free to ask another question.
