Answer:

1. Chloroplast

2. cellular respiration

3. ATP

4. C6H1206(s) + 02(g) -- CO2(g) + 6H20(I) + energy

Explanation:

This question is describing the processes of photosynthesis and cellular respiration. Photosynthesis occurs in the CHLOROPLAST, which is responsible for the conversion of solar energy (from sun) into chemical energy (in glucose). The general photosynthetic reaction is:

6CO2(g) + 6H2O(l) + energy → C6H12O6(s) + O2(g)

Contrarily, the process of cellular respiration occurs in the MITOCHONDRIA. Cellular respiration involves the breaking down of food molecules to synthesize ATP (energy) for use during biochemical reactions. The general chemical reaction is as follows:

C6H1206(s) + 02(g) → CO2(g) + 6H20(I) + energy

Pavlova-9 [17]

These secondary compounds are primarily adaptations that is inhibit herbivory.

Option D is correct.

What is meant by herbivory?

Herbivory may be a form of consumption in which an organism principally eats autotrophs such as plants, algae and photosynthesizing bacteria. More generally, organisms that prey on autotrophs in general are known as primary consumers. Herbivory is typically limited to animals that eat plants

What is the herbivory effect?

Herbivory can affect the expansion form of plants by terminating shoot growth and initiating branching and by affecting shoot-to-root ratios. Changes in survival, productivity, and growth of individual plant species affect vegetation structure and community dynasty.

<h3>Why is herbivory important?</h3>

Herbivory can have substantial impacts on habitat health, the structure and variety of plant and soil invertebrate communities and the productivity of economically important crops. The positive impact of herbivory is widely debated within the scientific literature.

Suppose a couple has come to see you to discuss the probability of their children having cystic fibrosis (CF). CF is known to be
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

The children that the couple may have a 25% chance of having cystic fibrosis and 75% chance of being carriers for the CF gene

Explanation:

We know that both parents are in the same situation. Let's start for example with the mother. She has one parent and one sibling with cystic fibrosis (CF). So, supposing that the allele of the gene that causes the disease is <em>"f"</em>,  as the disease is autosomal recessive, both, the parent and the sibling have the genotype ff.

Also, knowing that the other parent has a normal phenotype, but the sibling has CF, we deduce that the other parent of the mother must have a <em>Ff</em>.

So, <em>despite the mother's phenotype is normal, her genotype is Ff</em> (see the Punnett square 1) Couple's parents in the attached image). In other words, she is a carrier for the CF gene.

As the parents' situation is analogous, <em>we can deduce that the father also has a genotype Ff  </em>and is also a carrier for the CF gene.

Now, if we look at the Punnett square for them  (see the square 2) Couple in the attached image), we see that all their children will always have at least one copy of the CF allele, <em>f</em>.

More specifically, their children have 25%  chance of having cystic fibrosis and 75% chance of having a normal phenotype but being carriers of the CF gene.
