Answer:

Eels are a long, thin slimy fish that have a fin that runs the entire lengths of the backs of their bodies, extends around the tail and run for a distance on the underside of the fish. They have a wide and strong mouth. The pike has a long, slender body that is olive green in color and fades to yellowish-white on its belly. The reason for this is because they have diffrent bodies and a eel is small while pikes are big and have more weight.

In C3 plants the conservation of water promotes_______.a. photorespiration. b. a shift to C4.c. photosynthesis.d. the opening of
ankoles [38]

Answer:

A) photorespiration.

Explanation:

Photorespiration is the harmful metabolic process which takes place when the concentration of oxygen in the leaf increases compared to carbon dioxide.

The RUBISCO enzyme which usually binds the carbon dioxide now binds the oxygen and form the phosphoglycolate and 3 phosphoglycerate. The phosphoglycolate is lost through the Calvin cycle as Carbon dioxide molecule. This loss proves harmful to the plants.

The photorespiration occurs when the plant faces high temperature therefore n order to prevent water loss the stomata gets closed. This result in the binding of the oxygen to the RUBISCO and thus photorespiration begins.

Thus, Option-A is correct.

Ling made a study chart for science class.
aliina [53]

Alyssa's additional observation would be cell Y having a larger vacuole than cell X. The third option is the correct one.

<h3>Plant cell vs animal cell</h3>

From the observations, both cells are eukaryotic. This is because:

  • cell X has lysosomes which are only found in eukaryotic cells
  • cell Y has a nucleus which also peculiar to eukaryotic cells only

Lysosome houses digestive enzymes and is found mostly in animal cells. Only a few plant cells have lysosomes.

Thus, the lack of a lysosome means that cell Y is a plant cell while the presence means that cell X is an animal cell.

Generally, plant cells have larger vacuoles than animal cells.

Transcription of DNA in eukaryotes is different from transcription in prokaryotes. In eukaryotes a gene that is transcribed make
vekshin1

Answer: Exons

Explanation:

In eukaryotic cell the primary transcript are very long the contains coding region (exons) and non coding region (introns)

The parts of the gene sequence that are expressed (coding region) in the protein are called exons, because they are expressed, while the parts of the gene sequence that are not expressed in the protein are called introns, because they come in between the exons.

Intron is a portion of a gene that does not code for amino acids. These Intron sequence are cleaved out and exons are spliced (I. E combine together) to form the mature mRNA molecule.

Exons are the mRNA parts that are kept and used to make protein.
