Answer:

Hydrolysis reactions use water to breakdown polymers into monomers and is the opposite of dehydration synthesis, which forms water when synthesizing a polymer from monomers. Hydrolysis reactions break bonds and release energy.

explain why the top of an energy pyramid does not have an arrow showing energy going back down to the bottom.
SCORPION-xisa [38]
<span>The answer to your question is that all of the energy is ultimately radiated into empty outer space as heat. The second law of thermodynamics mandates that all processes that involve the transfer of energy MUST radiate a portion of this energy into space as waste heat. This is why when you run down the street you get hot and sweaty, and this is why automobiles MUST have a functioning radiator and nuclear power stations MUST have evaporation cooling towers or else be located near a large body of water to exchange excess waste heat into, etc., etc. It is also true that the transfer of energy at each step up the food chain is very inefficient. They say it takes around 50 lbs of corn to produce one pound of beef, and it probably takes 20-30 pounds of beef to produce one pound of human tissue. The rest of the energy just goes into your living room as radiated body heat. I hope this helps.</span>

A pea plant with round seeds (RR) is crossbred with another pea plant with wrinkled seeds (rr). What is the probability of the o
vichka [17]

Answer:

0%

Explanation:

The cross of a pea plant with round seeds (RR) with another pea plant with wrinkled seeds (rr) is shown as under :

P              RR  x   rr

F1          Rr    Rr    Rr   Rr

It is clear from the cross above, all the 4 probable progenies in filial 1 (F1) generation will be heterozygous with Rr genotype. Not even a single progeny will have homozygous recessive genotype which is responsible for producing wrinkled seeds. Also, even though the genotype of the progenies will be Rr not RR yet phenotypically they all will have round seeds i.e. they will show dominant trait. The reason behind it is that one of the alleles R which is responsible for dominant trait will mask the expression of recessive allele r. So, wrinkled phenotype which is a recessive trait will not be observed in any of the progenies.
