20. Dominant inheritance: Pattern of inheritance in which, when an individual receives contradictory

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

The theory of plate tectonics states that the Earth's solid outer crust, the lithosphere, is separated into plates that move over the asthenosphere, the molten upper portion of the mantle. Oceanic and continental plates come together, spread apart, and interact at boundaries all over the planet. It was proposed by Alfred Wegener.

In a population of plants, the allele for long stems is completely dominant over the allele for short stems. If 35% of the popul

KatRina [158]

Assumptions:
1. Equilibrium has been reached for the allele proportions
2. Absence of evolutionary influences such as mate choice, mutation, selection, genetic drift, gene flow and meiotic drive.

Defining L=long stem, l=short stem, and L is dominant over l.
f(x) = frequency of allele x (expressed as a fraction of population)
Then the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium law applies:
p^2+2pq+q^2=1
where
f(LL)=p^2
f(Ll)=2pq
f(ll)=q^2

Given f(ll)=0.35=q^2, we have
q=sqrt(0.35)=0.591608
p=1-q=0.408392
=>
f(Ll)
=2pq
=2*0.408392*0.591608=0.483216
= proportion of heterozygous population

Answer: percentage of heterozygous population is 48.32%

High Energy electrons are transported from the chlorophyll to other molecules in the chloroplast by?

Reil [10]

Explanation:

High-energy electrons are transported from the chlorophyll to other molecules by electron carriers beginning with pheophytin, P0 (a form of chlorophyll), then A1 phylloquinone etc.

The chloroplast is an organelle attached to the membrane found in plants. This comprises many plasma membrane invaginations called the thylakoid membrane. It contains chlorophyll pigments, called granum in rows, while the organelle's internal areas are called the lumen. Water fills the granum and the stroma is created.

Further Explanation:

During the light reaction:

Photosystem II (PSII) contains pigments which consume light energy. This energy is exchanged between pigments until it enters the reaction core and is moved to P680; this transfers an electron to a higher level of energy where it then travels to a molecule of acceptors.
For those removed from photosystem II, water supplies the chlorophyll in plant cell with substitute electrons. Additionally, water (H2O) divided into H+ and OH-by light during photolysis acts as a source of oxygen along with functioning as a reducer.
The electron moves down the electron transport chain via several electron carriers
The e- is delivered (to PS I) where it has a continuous loss of energy. Such energy drives the drainage of H+ from the stroma to the thykaloid, which results in a gradient creation. The H+ pass down their curve, passing into the stroma by ATP synthase.
ATP synthase converts ADP and Pi to the ATP molecule, which stores energy.
The electron enters Photosystem I where it heads to P700 pigments. It's. This consumes light energy, transfers the electron to a higher energy level, and moves it on to an acceptor electron. This leaves room for another electron which is then replaced by a photosystem II electron.
In the ETC the NADP molecule is reduced to NADPH by supplying H+ ions. NADP and NADPH are vital to the Calvin cycle, in which monosaccharides or glucose-like sugars are produced after several molecules have been modified.

Name one type of mutation which could result in cancer

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

Hey, here is your answer mate

Explanation:

These mutations may eventually lead to cancer, particularly mutations in tumor suppressor genes or oncogenes. Mutations in DNA repair genes may be inherited or acquired. Lynch syndrome is an example of the inherited kind. BRCA1, BRCA2, and p53 mutations and their associated syndromes are also inherited.

Hope you understand
