In their first attempts to genetically engineer a cow that will make and secrete human growth hormones in milk, scientists found

that they could insert the growth hormone gene into an embryonic calf. When the calf matures, it produces the hormone. However, they discovered that the altered gene gets lost from the genome during meiosis. What is the best explanation of what will happen in a population of genetically altered cows?
A. The cows will reproduce, but only males will reproduce the altered gene.

B. The cows will not reproduce because only females will reproduce the altered gene.

C. The cows will reproduce, but neither males nor females will reproduce the altered gene.

D. The cows will not reproduce because neither males nor females will reproduce the altered gene.

Answer:

C. The cows will reproduce, but neither males nor females will reproduce the altered gene.

Explanation:

I just had this question lol but because it said in the question “However, they discovered that the altered gene gets lost from the genome during meiosis.” Shows that the cows aren’t able to reproduce the altered gene. It never stated they can’t reproduce.

Vlad [161]

Cellular respiration

Explanation:

The energy animals need for their life functions are released when their cells carry out cellular respiration.

Cellular respiration is a metabolic process by which living organisms breaks down organic molecules using oxygen  especially glucose to produce energy and gives off carbon dioxide and water in the process.

It is the reverse of photosynthesis.

During this process, chemical energy stored in food substances are released and converted to heat energy.

The process takes place in the mitochondria of a cell.

Answer:

Explanation:

1)Pfr/Pr

2) Pr

3)far-red

Explanation:

The leaves at the top of a tree’s canopy are exposed to direct sunlight during the day, and their phytochromes will occur in a high *Pfr/Pr* ratio. Meanwhile, the leaves of the same tree at the bottom of the canopy are highly shaded during the day and will likely have a higher proportion of the * ( PHYTOCHROME )Pr *;form of phytochrome present due to exposure to a higher proportion of *FAR RED * light.

Plants make use of the phytochrome system to it's adjust growth based on the seasons. Through phytochrome plants is able to respond to the timing and duration of dark and light periods. At dawn, all the phytochrome molecules present in the leaved are converted to the active Pfr form until sunset this is because the sun is unfiltered, and unfiltered sunlight has high percentage of red light, but lower far-red light, with the help of phytochrome system , the plants is able to compare the length of dark periods over several days.
