Above 380C and below OoC the rate of photosynthesis decreases. Propose a hypothesis to explain why this occurs.
Effectus [21]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Enzyme activity decrease at these temperatures. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Photosynthesis is facilitated by the action of various enzymes and involves light and dark reactions.  In <em>light reactions chlorophyll absorbs sunlight and creates ATP AND NADPH</em>. In dark reactions carbon is fixed using the <em>ATP and NADPH. </em>

The efficiency of all these activities depends on the activity of enzymes which depends on the temperature. The optimum temperature range where the enzyme activity is optimal is about <em>10°c - 20°c</em>. At low temperatures and high temperatures enzyme activity is less efficient.

<em>At a temperature above 38°c and below  0°c enzyme activity decreases. </em>

Which of the following describes the embryonic period
dangina [55]

There should be options for this question. I manged to find them elsewhere. They are:

A) the period during which tremendous growth occurs and the organs continue to develop and become  functional

B) the period during which the umbilical cord develops

C) the period during which the major organs and structures of the organism first develop

D) the period during which the zygote moves down to the uterus and begins to implant in the lining

The correct answer is C. The embryonic period is the period during which the major organs and structures of the organism first develop. The embryonic period lasts from implantation of the egg in the uterus until about 8 weeks from the time of conception. It is the second major stage of prenatal development, prior to embryonic is the germinal stage and lastly is the fetal stage.

Duchene muscular dystrophy, or DMD, is a recessive, x-linked disease. What would you expect to see in the offspring of a woman w
Harman [31]

It is expected to see in the offspring of a woman who has DMD and a man who does not have the disease that all of their sons and none of their daughters will have the disease

Option A.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Duchene muscular dystrophy, also known as DMD is a recessive, x-linked disease. It occurs when there is a mutation in the dystrophin gene. This mutation further affects the muscles of the body leading it to degenerate and ultimately death.

When a woman with DMD and a man without DMD have an offspring, their daughters and the sons will get the mutated gene signature from the mother as she is the carrier. But since the father has normal genes, the daughters will become the carriers and will not be afflicted by it. This is because the normal X chromosome from the father will be passed on to them. The sons on the other hand will have the disease as they will get one of their mother's X chromosome which would be carrying the mutated gene.
