Answer: After several days, a large bubble of gas collected in the upside-down beaker contains OXYGEN.
Explanation:
Plants are known to be be autotrophic (producers) through the use of inorganic substance such as water, carbondioxide and light energy from sunlight in a process known as photosynthesis.
An experiment was carried out by Latecia for investigation of the gas production of a water plant. It's therefore expected that OXYGEN gas which is the by-product given off during photosynthesis in green plants would be collected from the upside down beaker as gas bubbles.
This means that we all are the descendants of one ancestor !! thus our genes match !!
Answer: 75% of the plants are purple and 25% are white. The phenotypic ratio can be expressed as 3:1.
Explanation:
Heterozygous means that its genotype has two distinct alleles, i.e. a dominant and a recessive one. So the genotype of the plants is Pp, and each plant has two alleles since<u> they are diploid organisms, which have two copies of each gene.
</u>
<u>Each plant produces gametes, which are haploids cells. That is, they only have one copy of each gene (one allele)</u>. So, the gametes produced by Pp have a P or p genotype. During fertilization, the maternal and paternal gamete are fused to form a diploid zygote where their genotype will have one allele from the father and one from the mother.
By making this monohybrid cross, we cross the gametes of each parent in the punnett square (see picture)
In the offspring, we see one PP genotype (homozygous dominant), two Pp genotypes (heterozygous) and one pp genotype (homozygous recessive). <u>Since we know the P allele is dominant and it codes for purple color, a genotype only needs one P allele to express that phenotype</u>. So Pp and PP organisms are purple, and only pp is white. That means 75% of the plants are purple and 25% are white. The phenotypic ratio can be expressed as 3:1.
Not 100% sure here but from what I remember I think it is called osmosis... It is if the water is leaving or entering the cell.
The right matches are:
• Involves the transfer of genetic material from one bacteria to another ==> Genetic recombination (all 3).
• Involves scraps of genetic material ==> Transformation.
• Uses a virus to transmit genetic material ==> Transduction.
• Uses a pilus to transmit genetic information ==> Conjugation.
• Introduces new genetic material to a bacterium ==> Genetic recombination (all 3).
In molecular biology the term genetic recombination is often used as a synonym for DNA recombination, that is, the processes by which one DNA (or RNA) molecule is cut off, then joined to another.
There are three possible mechanisms in the bacterium: bacterial conjugation, bacterial transformation and transduction.
