Answer:
The parent's genotypes are:
Ddpp - tall, white parent
ddPp - dwarf, purple parent.
Explanation:
This question involves two different genes coding for height and flower color in pea plants. The alleles for tallness (D) and purple color (P) are dominant over the alleles for dwarfness (d) and white color (p) respectively.
According to this question, a tall plant with white flowers is crossed with a dwarf plant with purple flowers to produce the following proportion of offsprings: 1/4 tall purple, 1/4 tall white, 1/4 dwarf purple, and 1/4 dwarf white.
Since some of the offsprings contain recessive alleles for both or either genes, the dominant traits of the parent is controlled by an heterozygous genotype. This means that the tall plant with white flowers has a genotype: Ddpp while the dwarf plant with purple flowers has the genotype: ddPp. In a cross between Ddpp × ddPp, 1/4 of each combination of alleles is produced in the offsprings (see punnet square in the attachment).
Answer:
Active uptake (which I think you mean active transport) is important when the concentration gradient is against that of a certain substance, so it doesn't cross the membrane through diffusion or passive transport. It is sometimes necessary if a substance needs to move across a membrane but can't do so due to electrical charge or that there is a substance on the other side of the membrane preventing diffusion.

Answer:
The answer to 1. is option a. asexual portion.
The answer to 2. is option b. sexual portion.
The answer to 3. Is option a. Mosquito
Explanation:
1. The asexual portion is the stage in the Plasmodium erythrocytic cycle where the parasite develops in the erythrocytes causing accumulation of waste and toxic substances which ultimately end up in the bloodstream when the infected cells lyse. These factors acts to produce the symptoms experienced in malaria.
2. During the sexual portion of the Plasmodium cycle spores formed in the human host are released into the bloodstream which is usually picked up by an uninfected female anopheles mosquito when it takes a blood meal.
3. An infected mosquito passes the sporozoites to a new human host when it takes a blood meal and the cycle starts all over.
