A baker has created a new strain of yeast which contains no cytochrome c gene and no cytochrome c protein. this will affect what the yeast strain can do to obtain energy. what will this yeast strain do more of compared to a normal strain
Will this new strain of yeast obtain more or less free energy from glucose in its growing medium?
Answer: Less because cytochrome c is key to the electron transport chain.
Explanation:
The Cytochrome c is an essential component of the electron transport chain. Without this there will be no oxidation and reduction of iron atom will take place which could convert the ferrous ions to ferric ions. Thus the entire process of electron transport chain and energy production in the form of ATP will be compromised. So, there will be no production of energy in the anaerobic fermentation by yeast.
More rainfall leads to the growth of the grass in a tallgrass prairie to grow so tall.
Answer: Option B.
<u>Explanation:</u>
The tallgrass prairie consists of big and little blue stem, switchgrass, and Indian grass. These were the species which thrive in the area which receive rainfall in large amount. The rainfall in these areas are in the amount of 30-40 inch annual precipitation.
Because these areas receive rainfall in such high amount, the grasses grow very tall. The height of these grasses reach to approximately 6-8 feet in height.
The law of A. <span>segregation </span>is the Mendel’s laws or principles explain that traits are passed from parents to offspring individually instead of as pairs, groups or sets. So the correct option is option “A” as far as the given question is concerned. This is a law or principle which states that during the formation of gametes, two copies of each heredity factors separate out so that the new offspring can get one factor of both the parents. This law was the first law in this direction.
