Answer:
Non-Mendelian inheritance
Multiple alleles, incomplete dominance, and codominance
Explanation:
In the real world, genes often come in many versions (alleles). Alleles aren't always fully dominant or recessive to one another, but may instead display codominance or incomplete dominance.
Answer:
D. Enzymes require a specific range of pH values to function.
Explanation:
Enzymes function the best in a neutral pH, rather than in very acidic or basic environments.
Enzymes are very affected by changes in pH levels because they perform much better in neutral environments.
The main variables which affect photosynthesis are light, water, CO2 concentration and temperature.
On a deeper level, other factors like amount of chlorophyll, availability of nutrients (eg Mg is needed for chlorophyll synthesis) will also affect the rate of photosynthesis, though these are rarely covered in discussion of this topic.
The thing is that photosynthesis will be held back by whichever factor is in shortest supply.
As I sit in my study in England, the sun is shining brightly, but the temperature outside is only 5ºC. I suspect the rate of photosynthesis is limited by temperature today.
Yesterday was a dull day, but in the middle of the day it was not cold and I suspect there wasn't enough light for photosynthesis. If I had turned the security lights on my house on, the plants in my garden might (possibly) have photosynthesised faster.
In summer, some farmers growing crops in glasshouses actually increase the amount of carbon dioxide in the air as all their plants have plenty of water and light and the temperature is near the best possible for photosynthesis.
A good way to investigate this might be with the help of algae and you can use the 'Immobilised Algae' practical for this.
Although water is needed as a raw material for photosynthesis, don't bother trying to investigate water as a variable - plants normally wilt and wither long before water restricts photosynthesis at the biochemical level. They need water to support the plant to face the sun as well as a raw material of photosynthesis.
The simplest equation for photosynthesis:-
Carbon dioxide + water -----(in light, with chlorophyll and enzymes)----> sugar + oxygen
Temperature speeds up all chemical reactions - photosynthesis is no exception.
Enzymes work better in warm conditions (up to about 50ºC when enzymes start to be destroyed by heat).
The idea to get across is that different conditions will be most important on different occasions. This morning, my garden could do with more warmth - yesterday, it could do with more light / sun!
Answer:
The correct answer will be option-B.
Explanation:
Meiosis is a type of cell division which proceeds in two stages: meiosis I and meiosis II and result in the formation of four daughter cells.
The meiosis I is known as the reductional division as two daughter cells are formed with reduced ploidy level that is haploid cells from diploid cells. The cells formed contains chromosomes with two chromatids as the DNA amount gets doubled after the DNA synthesis.
Thus, Option-B is the correct answer.
If your choices are the following (see attachment), then the answer is E gene.
It is stated that hypostatic gene<span> is one whose phenotype is altered by the expression of an allele at a separate locus, in an epistasis event. So the allele altering the espistatis event is the E gene.</span>
