Answer:

Water has a high Cohesion because of Hydrogen bonding. This is important as transport of water in the Xylem in plants relies on water being pulled up. Cohesion also gives the water a high surface tension, allowing small organisms, such as Pond Skaters, to walk along it.

Explanation:

Water molecules forming hydrogen bonds with one another. The partial negative charge on the O of one molecule can form a hydrogen bond with the partial positive charge on the hydrogens of other molecules. Water molecules are also attracted to other polar molecules and to ions.

Plants obtain the hydrogen they need from water molecules. Don't try to feed your plant hydrogen gas -- your plant wouldn't know what to do with it if you did. As long as they have water, plants can readily obtain all the hydrogen they need. :)

Luba_88 [7]

Since you forgot to put capital letters i assume it's like this:

1)A Cross between YyLl (heterozygous parent with dominant traits) and yyll (homozygous parent with recessive traits).

 2)offspring YyLl: 400, Yyll: 100, yyLl: 100 and yyll: 400

The recombinant offspring are allele combinations that are not directly inherited from the parents.
The parents combinations:YyLl and yyll,
The recombinant combinations: Yyll and yyLl
The other types are exacly like the parents so they are not recombinant.

answer: Yyll and yyLl

What are the two types of eukaryotic cells

Elena L [17]

Answer:

There are two types of cell, prokaryotic (bacteria) and eukaryotic (animal, plant, fungi and protoctista (unicellular organisms)). Prokaryotes have no nucleolus – the DNA is in the cytoplasm, and it can from small circular strands of DNA called plasmids. Eukaryotic cells all have their DNA enclosed in a nucleus.

krok68 [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is 2. 5'-AUGUCAGGUACGCCACAU-3'

Explanation:

The template strand for transcription is 3'-TACAGTCCATGCGGTGTA-5 and RNA polymerase will add complementary mRNA sequence against this strand in the opposite direction i.e., 5' to 3' direction.

In RNA, A(adenine) makes complementary base pairing with U(uracil), not with T(thymine) and the rest of the base-pairing is same as in DNA. Therefore the correct mRNA produced from the transcription of this DNA molecule by the help of RNA polymerase is 5'-AUGUCAGGUACGCCACAU-3'.

Then this mRNA sequence will be used by ribosomes to synthesize proteins during the translation process.
