When Mendel crossed purebred purple flowering plants (PP) with purebred white flowering plants (pp), what were the flower colors
zavuch27 [327]
The answer is <span>100 percent purple
</span>
Let P be dominant allele for purple flowers and p recessive allele for white flowers. So purebred purple flower has two P alleles and its genotype is PP and purebread white flower has two p alleles and its genotype is pp. Since P is dominant over p, when found together like in heterozygous plants (Pp), the flowers will express dominant allele and will be purple.
So, a cross between <span>purebred purple flowering plants (PP) with purebred white flowering plants (pp) will have 100% of the offspring with genotype Pp and purple flower color.

Parents:               PP      x       pp
Offspring:        Pp     Pp      Pp    Pp

Hunter-Best [27]

Glycolysis evolved very early in ancestors that are common to all the domains of life.

This is because the site of glycolysis is cytoplasm which is present in both prokaryotes as well as eukaryotes.

As prokaryotes are the early ancestors of all domains of life therefore it is also considered that glycolysis is evolved very early.

How do the small molecules of oxygen and carbon dioxide move through the cell membrane?
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

A.  passive transport by diffusion

Explanation:

Diffusion and osmosis are both types of passive transport. They do not require energy. Diffusion is the general term for the process. Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules.

Many small, uncharged molecules can cross the cell membrane by diffusion. Oxygen and carbon dioxide are examples of two small molecules that pass the cell membrane by passive transport.

Larger or charged molecules require energy to cross the cell membrane. This is achieved by active transport.
