Garlic (Allium sativum L.), a member of the onion family, has been cultivated for thousands of years and is widely used for both its culinary and medicinal attributes. As Americans have become more accustomed to garlic flavor and knowledgeable about the many health benefits of eating garlic, popularity of this crop has increased.
Most garlic in the U.S. is grown in the mild climate of northern California. Varieties adapted to mild climates and then grown in cold climates often do not perform well and usually develop a very "hot" flavor. Garlic is an adaptable species, however, and over thousands of years, varieties have been selected that grow well in cold climates, often with better garlic flavor than the varieties grown in mild climates.
Recent demand for high-quality garlic has prompted an interest in growing garlic for niche markets in the upper Midwest. With wholesale prices of fresh garlic between $2 and $4 per pound, and average yields of 8000 - 10,000 lbs. per acre, the potential for improving farm profitability is significant.
This publication provides guidelines for growing garlic in cold climates. The major areas addressed include variety selection, soils, cultural practices, pest management, harvesting, and storage.
None of them are likely to express the recessive trait because they all have a dominate allele in their genotype. 2 of them will be homozygous dominant, but two of them will be heterozygous and carriers for the disease.
If the membrane of a cell were no longer selectively permeable then "The cell would die as it would not be able to regulate which substances could enter and leave", since a selectively permeable membrane allows both things to enter and leave for the cell's survival.
Answer:
Option A, Pantala flavescens, because these organisms would have a high level of genetic variation due to sexual reproduction
Explanation:
Genetics variation allows as organism to evolve in a way to be able to cope up with the existing or changing environmental condition. Now, a Pantala flavescens undergoes sexual reproduction, thus only this creature has the ability among all the given organism to evolve genetically and be able to survive in this environment. All the remaining organisms reproduce asexually and hence there is no variation with in them and hence it would be difficult for these organisms to cope up with changing environment.
Hence, option A is correct.
Answer:
A. Genetic Biodiversity
Explanation:
All in all, many products that make up food, medicine, and supplies for humans are enhanced by the components of biodiversity.
Similarly, a lot of components that make up our medicines usually come from environments that have extravagant amounts of biodiversity.
Case in point, the country of Madagascar is where most of the formulas of our medicines come from, and it has some of the most vibrant & biodiverse tropical forests in the world.
