Explanation:

Since the student created a closed ecosystem, therefore, the system will have lack of oxygen for any living organism.

Therefore, when snails are placed into it then due to non-availability of sufficient amount of oxygen the snails died.

Whereas effect of closed system on plants cannot be observed as plants do not move from their place.

Thus, we can conclude that due to lack of oxygen snails die in the closed ecosystem.

They may have ran out of oxygen, or they may not have been water dwelling snails, as not all are, lack of food, no flow of water into and out of the tank would cause them to run out of oxygen.

Every cell has different receptors in the membrane, these receptors are specific, but different receptors can read one signal molecule, according to the receptor, this molecule can activate or inactivate different path ways.

Let me put it this way, if I give the same message to a botanist and a gardener they both are going to read it in different way even knowing it is the same.

In the light dependent reactions light energy is absorbed by the photosytem II and an electron is released. This electron causes a process called photolysis to occur(H20-->2H++2e-+1/2O2). This is how O2 is released in the atmosphere. The electrons resulted from photolyisis enter the electron transport chain. In the electron transport chain using the energy in the elecrtons, hydrogen protons are pumped inside the thylakoid. Those protons accumulate to form an electrochemical gradient. That means the protons need to flow out, and they do through an enzyme called ATP-synthase which turns ADP and inorganic phosphate into ATP and water. In the electron transport chain, the electrons reach Photosystem I where NADP+ is reduced and becomes NADPH.

ATP and NADPH store the energy absorbed in the light dependent reactions. Those two molecules are needed when CO2 is fixated in Calvin's cycle to synthesize glucose.

Answer:

Codominance

Explanation:

That would be Codominance.  Codominance means that neither allele can mask the expression of the other allele (Both are dominant alleles, no recessive alleles). This is because the flower isn't only red or only pink. It has both alleles (which causes the red and pink stripes).
