Most people recognize biodiversity by species—a group of individual living organisms that can interbreed. Examples of species include blue whales, white-tailed deer, white pine trees, sunflowers, and microscopic bacteria that can't even be seen by the naked eye.

Answer:

Since plants and fungi are both derived from protists, they share similar cell structures. Unlike animal cells, both plant and fungal cells are enclosed by a cell wall. As eukaryotes, both fungi and plants have membrane-bound nuclei, which contain DNA condensed with the help of histone proteins.

Why are cells so small? In your answer, use the terms volume, distance, diffusion, surface area, plasma membrane.

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

Cells are so little, so they can maximize their ratio of surface area to volume.

Explanation:

Smaller cells have a higher ratio which allows more molecules and ions to move across the cell membrane per unit of cytoplasmic volume. Cells are so small because they need to be able to get the nutrients in and the waste out quickly.

What is the skin area along a central nerve pathway?

Butoxors [25]

The human skin is the protective layer of the human body against the external forces like the temperature, sharp objects, microbes, fungi and other related materials that can penetrate and weaken the body however, the integumentary system prevents any harm come to the organism. The dermis is the skin area which has different structures that perform different functions.

In garden peas, the yellow seed trait is dominant over green seeds. Also, the round seed trait is dominant over the wrinkled-see

Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

405 individuals will be yellow and round seeded.

Explanation:

<u>Available data:</u>

the yellow seed trait is dominant over green seeds
round seed trait is dominant over the wrinkled-seed trait
These genes are on separate chromosomes

Let´s name the seed color genes Y, and the seed shape gene R

Y is the dominant allele for seed color expressing yellow

y is the recessive allele for seed color expressing green

R is the dominant allele for seed shape expressing round

r is the recessive allele for seed shape expressing wrinkled

Cross: between two plants that are heterozygous for both traits

Parental) Yy Rr x Yy Rr

Gametes) YR yR Yr yr YR yR Yr yr

Punnet Square) YR yR Yr yr

YR YYRR YyRR YYRr YyRr

yR YyRR yyRR YyRr yyRr

Yr YYRr YyRr YYrr Yyrr

yr YyRr yyRr Yyrr yyrr

F1) 720 individuals

9/16 yellow and round seeded individuals, Y-R-

3/16 green and round seeded individuals, yyR-

3/16 yellow and wrinkle seeded individuals, Y-rr

1/16 green and wrinkle seeded individuals, yyrr

<em>Note: the "-" symbol in the phenotypes means that there it could be either a dominant or recessive allele. </em>

If 720 is the total number of individuals in the F1, then:

16 possible genotypes ---------- 100% of the progeny -------- 720 individuals

9 yellow and rounded----------- 56.25% ----------------------------405 individuals

3 green and rounded-------------18.75%------------------------------135 individuals

3 yellow and wrinkled-------------18.75%------------------------------135 individuals

1 green and wrinkled--------------6.25%-------------------------------45 individuals
