What is the function of a pollen tube?

Biology
2 answers:
Firlakuza [10]2 years ago

Answer:

The function of the pollen tube is to lead sperm cells into the ovary.

Explanation:

In angiosperms, the pollen tube is a structure formed when the pollen grain comes into contact with the stigma and germinates, producing a tubal extension that is related to the embryonic sac where the female gametophyte is found.

The function of the pollen tube is to conduct the male gametophyte —which is found in the pollen— to the embryonic sac, in order to come into contact with the oosphere and produce fertilization.

The other options are not correct because the pollen tube:

  • <em>Do </em><u><em>not create more pollen</em></u><em>. </em>
  • <em>Do </em><u><em>not create more male spermatophytes</em></u><em>. </em>
  • <u><em>Does not lead the eggs to the male spermatophytes</em></u><em>.</em>

Answer: to lead sperm cells into the ovary .

Explanation: There needs to be a way for the sperm cells formed by the pollen's generative nucleus to reach the egg cells that are found in the ovary.

The average gene in the human genome is approximately _____ base pairs in length. 700 7000
bulgar [2K]

The average gene in the human genome is approximately <u>27,000 base pairs</u> base pairs in length.

<h3>What does human nuclear genome contain?</h3>
  • One gene. The trypsinogen protein, an inactive precursor to the digestive enzyme trypsin, is synthesized using information from the TRY4 gene.
  • Two parts of a gene: These two genes, designated V28 and V29-1, each code for a particular region of the T-cell receptor protein, for which the locus is called.
  • Pseudogene one. A pseudogene is a replica of a gene that is not functional and often one whose nucleotide sequence has altered, rendering its biological information unintelligible.
  • These are sequences that appear often across the genome.
  • The terms LINEs (long interspersed nuclear elements), SINEs (short interspersed nuclear elements), LTR (long terminal repeat) elements, and DNA transposons refer to the four main categories of genome-wide repeats.
  • Two microsatellites—sequences in which a brief motif is repeated twice—are involved. The sequence: is found in one of the microsatellites that has the pattern GA repeated 16 times.

5′- GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

3′-CTCTCTCTCTCTCTCTCTCTCTCTCTCTCTCT-5′

  • The TATT sequence is repeated six times on the second microsatellite.
  • Last but not least, almost 50% of the 50 kb portion of the human genome that we are interested in is made up of lengths of non-genic, non-repetitive, single-copy DNA that have no known meaning or function.
