Biology
1 answer:
uysha [10]3 years ago
6 0

Each gene occupies a specific position on a chromosome. Because genes provide instructions for making proteins, and proteins determine the structure and function of each cell in the body, it follows that genes are responsible for all the characteristics you inherit. These pair up to make a total of 46 chromosomes.

rewona [7]

Answer:

The rapid decolorization with ethanol or acetone

and counterstaining with safranin

When a decolorizer such as alcohol or acetone is added, it interacts with the lipids of the cell membrane.

Conversely, gram-positives retain the Cristal violet and will color in purple

What is present in the soil that makes nitrogen<br> directly available to plants?
lubasha [3.4K]

Nitrogen in the air and ammonia from decayed matter in the soil is converted to ammonium by decomposers and nitrogen-fixing bacteria. The ammonium is further nitrified to nitrates by nitrifying bacteria. Finally, the nitrates can then absorbed by the plants.
