What happen when the phosphate from ATP attaches to the pump?

Feliz [49]

If you mean the xylem pump, then after the ATP attaches to it the water can travel trough the xylem tube and get to the stomata and through osmosis travels through the semi-permeable membrane allowing it to open and allow to get In for photosynthesis

If this trisomic fly is the progeny of a male fly of genotype (ey+ ey−, gw+ gw−) crossed to a female fly with genotype (ey− ey−,

Nikitich [7]

I found the exercise on the internet and attached is the representation of the fly's trisomy.

Correct answer:
"Nondisjunction occurred in the male parent at the meiosis I division to produce an (n+1) sperm that fused with a normal (n) egg."

It is during meiosis I that the homologous chromosomes are divided into two new cells. In this case, if a trisomy is present, it means that during this segregation part during meiosis I, two homologous chromosomes were not separated (nondisjunction) creating a gamete cell that had two copies of a chromosome (and another without any copy of that chromosome).
This error on meiosis I might have occurred in the male parent. As we can see from the schematic representation of the trisomy, there is two chromosomes with a wild allele (+). These alleles were only present in the male parent, as the female parent was homozygous for all genes, no wild allele (+).

Explain in simple molecular terms what would have to be done to a plant oil to transform it to a trans fat.

sdas [7]

When naturally occurring unsaturated fatty acids are altered by partial hydrogenation, they are converted to saturated fatty acids, which have the effect of straightening the chains and changing the physical properties.

Also during partial hydrogenation, some of the unsaturated fatty acids, which are normally found as the cis isomer about the double bonds, are changed to a trans double bond and remain unsaturated. Trans fatty acids of the same length and weight as the original cis fatty acids, still have the same number of carbons, hydrogens, and oxygens but they are now shaped in a more linear form, as opposed to the bent forms of the cis isomers. Trans and cis are prefixes that mean opposite and same side, just like transgender people identify with a gender that is not in line with their biological sex, and cisgender people identify with their biological gender. Cis fat describes the fatty acids attached to the glycerol in triglycerides. Cis fats have hydrogen attached to the carbon chain just like trans fats, but at one, two, or more places on the chain, two hydrogen atoms attached on the same side, and the fatty acid chain gets bent, making the collection of fats less dense and therefore healthier for you and I. Trans fats have hydrogen atoms on alternating sides all the way down the chain, making them denser and solid at room temperature. In order to turn a plant oil (cis fat) into trans fat, the cis fat has to be blasted with hydrogen in order to turn the fatty acid chains from cis to trans. This adds more energy to the fats while also making them denser, which turns olive oil into a butter-like substance.
