Answer:
d
Explanation:
When considering the frequency of the potential alleles of a gene in a population, the total must add up to 1. Think of it like percentages. an allele frequency of 0.3 means 30% of the population carry it (out of a possible 100%).
We know that the frequency of c1 is 0.3. Lets take each option and see if it can be true
a) cannot be less than 0.3. - false. It <em>could </em>be less than 0.3. For example, it could be 0.1, meaning the frequency of allele c3 would be 0.6 (because 0.3 + 0.1 + 0.6 = 1)
b) cannot be greater than 0.3. - false. It <em>could </em>be greater than 0.3. For example, it could be 0.5, meaning the frequency of allele c3 would have to be 0.2 (because 0.3 + 0.5 + 0.2 = 1)
c) is 0.7. - false. It <em>can't </em>be 0.7, because that would mean that the frequency of c3 is 0. (0.7 + 0.3 = 1)
d) cannot be greater than 0.7. - true. It <em>cannot </em>be greater than 0.7, because that would mean that the frequency of c3 is 0. (0.7 + 0.3 = 1)
The spread of roots around a plant is usually greater than the depth of the roots is a completely false statement. It totally depends on the type of plant in regards to the type of root it will have. Normally there are two kinds of roots and they are taproot and fibrous roots. In case of taproots the main root goes downwards and smaller roots branches out of it. In case of taproots, it is true that the spread of roots is smaller than the depth of the roots. In case of fibrous roots, the spread of roots is greater than that of the depth of the roots. A wig tree is an example of a plant having taproot. in the wig tree the root can go to a depth of around 120 meters.
Answer:
When the required direction of transport is opposed to concentration levels, a cell <u>will </u> expend energy to force<u> ions</u> across its membrane.
Explanation:
If the concentration gradient is opposite to the direction of transport of minerals, then the cell will use energy to transport mineral ions from a lower concentration to a higher concentration. The most common process through which this happens is termed as the active transport.
The process of active transport is opposite to passive transport. In passive transport, molecules move from a higher concentration to a lower concentration.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
There are different mechanisms for transport of molecules across the cell membrane. One kind of this transport is facilitated diffusion, this is a form of passive transport, not requiring any ATP (the opposite would be active transport, where it does require ATP.
Simple diffusion does require special transport proteins, and neither does osmosis. Filtration is a technique used for sterilisation of water, where any impurities can be drawn out of the liquid
