Answer:

Protection

Explanation:

The plasma membrane, or the cell membrane, provides protection for a cell. It also provides a fixed environment inside the cell. And that membrane has several different functions. One is to transport nutrients into the cell and also to transport toxic substances out of the cell.

Conduct a dihybrid cross of pea plants with the following combination of traits: Parent 1—Tall plant with white flowers (pure br
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

i) Genotype of Parent 1= TTpp

Genotype of  Parent 2= ttPP

ii) The genotypes of their gametes

Parent 1= Tp

Parent 2= tP

iii) F1 generation = All TtPp (tall and purple flower)

iv) F2 phenotype ratio= 9 tall, purple: 3 tall, white: 3 dwarf, purple : 1 dwarf, white.

F2 Genotype ratio= 1:2:1:2:4:2:1:2:1

Explanation:

Let's assume that allele "T" gives tall plants while allele "t" imparts dwarfism. Likewise, the dominant allele "P" is responsible for purple flowers while recessive allele "p" gives white flowers.

i) Genotype of Parent 1—Tall plant with white flowers (pure breeding)= TTpp

Genotype of  Parent 2—Dwarf plant with purple flowers (pure breeding)= ttPP

ii) The genotypes of their gametes

Parent 1= Tp

Parent 2= tP

iii) F1 generation = All TtPp (tall and purple flower)

iv) Each of the F1 plant with TtPp genotype will form four types of gametes= TP, Tp, tP and tP

A cross between TtPp x TtPp gives F2 progeny in following ratio=

F2 generation phenotype ratio= 9 tall, purple: 3 tall, white: 3 dwarf, purple : 1 dwarf, white.

Genotype ratio= 1:2:1:2:4:2:1:2:1

Paladinen [302]

Answer: Positive feedback loop

Explanation:

Even before the food reaches the stomach (before ingesting it), the glands of the stomach mucosa begin to release its gastric secretion. The main characteristic of this secretion is acidity, as measured by pH (one of the physiological variables).

This acidity is a result of the presence of hydrochloric acid, which is part of the secretion composition. In addition to it, water, pepsinogen (which will give rise to the enzyme pepsin) and the intrinsic factor. The acid has a function of the protection of the entire system by eliminating microorganisms. It is also responsible for the activation of pepsin (which only occurs with acid pH), the enzyme that digests proteins containing the amino acids leucine or phenylalanine or tryptophan or tyrosine.

The concept of Positive feedback loop states that the body tries to increase the value of a variable (acidity, in the case of pepsinogen) when it is below its optimal value (called a point adjustment) and decreases this value when it is above optimal.
