D) cell respiration


Photosynthesis is the primary funtion of the leaves.
Explanation:
Photosynthesis is defined as the chemical process of converting light energy into chemical energy in a form of food or sugar. Leaves contain most of the chloroplasts in plants that are responsible in capturing light for photosynthesis to occur.
Leaves are naturally green to serve their purpose. This green color is caused by the reflection of the green portion of the visible light spectrum by the green coloring pigment, chlorophyll. Chlorophyll, that is contained in chloroplasts, captures certain wavelengths of light, as energy to initiate photosynthesis. As a result, we get food from plants.

During transcription the DNA base sequence is transcribed into a complementary mRNA sequence. A codon table like the one shown b
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

b. Even though the DNA sequence changed, the sequence still codes for the same amino acid, so no change in phenotype will occur.

Explanation:

There is redundancy in the genetic code. That means that different codons can code for the same amino acids, so some mutations do not change the amino acid sequence of the protein.

Here, the amino acid is unchanged with the mutation.

If the amino acid sequence of the protein is the same, then the protein is not changed, so there will be no change in the phenotype

What is the basis for the delay between the atrial and ventricular contractions in a normal heart?
earnstyle [38]

The main responsible for the delay among the atrial and ventricular contractions is the action potential conduction velocity of the AV node cells. If the atria and ventricles contract simultaneously, atria cannot give any help in filling the ventricles, which is needed, especially in those with stiff ventricles as in the elderly. Hence atria have to contract first and then the ventricles.
