Answer:

Explanation:

The flowering plants, also known as Angiospermae, or Magnoliophyta, are the most diverse group of land plants, with 64 orders, 416 families, approximately 13,000 known genera and 300,000 known species. Like gymnosperms, angiosperms are seed-producing plants. They are distinguished from gymnosperms by characteristics including flowers, endosperm within their seeds, and the production of fruits that contain the seeds. Etymologically, angiosperm means a plant that produces seeds within an enclosure; in other words, a fruiting plant. The term comes from the Greek words angeion and sperma.

lukranit [14]

Answer:

The start codon is AUG

Explanation:

A three nucleotide sequence (represented with bases) of a DNA or a RNA which translates to a specific amino acid is referred to as codon. To begin the translation into a new protein, the first three nucleotide is always AUG (called the START codon) which is the codon for methionine.

NOTE: AUG is the initial of the bases; Adenine, Uracil and Guanine

This is any functional structure within the confines of a cell; literally a “small organ;” it usually has a membrane-based struc

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

The cell organelles are the functional structures present inside the cell. Some of the organelles such as nucleus, mitochondria, chloroplast, Endoplasmic Reticulum, Golgi Complex etc are membrane-bound. Each organelle inside the cell has a different function to carry out. For example, the nucleus is the organelles which stores and protects the genetic material. Ribosomes are the organelles where a protein is formed. The Golgi- complex is the site where the proteins are modified and packaged.

The shape of the external ear is maintained by ________. Select one: a. hyaline cartilage b. adipose tissue c. fibrocartilage d.

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

D) elastic cartilage

Explanation:

Cartilage is a connective tissue which is fibrous in composition which provides its physical properties like the softness, elasticity and strength.

There are three types of cartilages- the elastic, hyaline and the fibrocartilage. Among these three the cartilage which forms the external ear is the elastic cartilage. The elastic cartilage is composed of the elastin protein, type II collagen and the elastic fibres. The presence of the elastin proteins and fibres allows the ear to be an elastic organ.

Thus, Option-D is the correct answer.

5. The F2 generation of a cross between a parental tall and a parental short pea plant is 298 tall plants and 102 short plants.

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

The answer is XX.

Explanation:

Let us say that X is the dominant gene and x is the recessive gene for the height of the pea plants. Pea plants need to be homozygous or heterozygous to have the short phenotype which means it needs to have the genotype xx or Xx.

The F2 offspring has a ratio of 74,5% tall plants and 25,5% short plants. For these results, the stem height pea plant needs to be homozygous which is an XX genotype for the tall pea plant.

I hope this answer helps.
