Answer:

Your body cells use the oxygen you breathe to get energy from the food you eat. This process is called cellular respiration. During cellular respiration the cell uses oxygen to break down sugar. When the cell uses oxygen to break down sugar, oxygen is used, carbon dioxide is produced, and energy is released. In cells use oxygen to release energy stored in sugars such as glucose. In fact, most of the energy used by the cells in your body is provided by cellular respiration.

Explanation:

i tried my best to break it down into a simple explanation. hope this isn't too complicated, and i hope it helps!! have a nice day.

A botanist has acquired a group of sweet pea plants. All of the plants have yellow pea pods (the recessive trait), except for on
Advocard [28]

Answer:

In order to find out the genotype we do a testcross of green pea pods with yellow pea pods.

Explanation:

1. If the F1 generation consist of green pea pods only then the genotype of the green pea pod is 'GG' (i.e the dominant alleles).  

<h2>                           TEST CROSS </h2>

                    Green pea pods        X           Yellow pea pods

                                    GG              X              gg

       <u>Gametes: </u>

                                     G               X                g

      <u> F1 Generation: </u>

<h2>                                 Gg </h2>

2. However if the F1 generation consist of 50% green pea pods and 50% yellow pea pods then the genotype of green pea pods is 'Gg' (both the dominant and recessive alleles).

                   Green pea pods        X           Yellow pea pods

                               Gg                  X               gg

       <u>Gametes: </u>

                           G      g      X        g

       <u>F1 Generation:</u>

<h2>                              Gg, gg </h2>

We can relate this to Mendel's Law of segregation and meiosis as

  • Both the alleles segregate into seperate gametes (i.e they are sorted independent of one another).
  • This segregation is similar to the first division of meiosis in which homologous chromosomes of gene are segregated in daughter nuclei

In a given population of Drosophila, curly wings (c) is recessive to the wild-type condition of straight wings (c+). You isolate
bixtya [17]

Answer:

B) 300

Explanation:

There are two types of alleles present for wing type in this population of Drosophila, c and c+. Various combinations of these two alleles will produce different phenotypes.

c+c+ : straight wings = 45

c+c: straight wings = 70

cc: curly wings = 35

Total flies = 150

Each fly has one gene with two alleles for wing type. Hence 150 flies will have 300 alleles in the gene pool.
