The Kingdom Protista has a bunch of organisms thrown into the category because scientists have yet to sort them out properly. In the future these classifications might become more specific.
Photoautotrophs use light to make their own energy
Answer:
The correct answer is - each macromolecule has its own function and role in the body of an organism.
Explanation:
There are four major macromolecules that are essential for the energy and growth and development of an organism, are Proteins, carbohydrates, fat and nucleic acids. Each macromolecule is essential and found in various food sources so any specific macromolecule can not found in a healthy diet.
Proteins play various roles in the body such as support, building blocks, carriers, enzymes, and hormones. On other hand, carbohydrate provides energy for the cells, the transmission of the genetic information will be transferred by a nucleic acid. Fat also helps provide insulation, make lipid membranes.
Answer:
A. the heterozygote advantage
Explanation:
Heterozygote advantage is the condition where the heterozygous individual has higher relative fitness than both homozygous dominant and homozygous recessive individual. This means that the heterozygote individual has higher chances of surviving than both the homozygous counterparts. Sickle cell anemia is a recessive inherited disorder in which oxygen carrying hemoglobin has an abnormal structure. Hence, the resultant RBCs are not spherical but have crescent sickle shape. The oxygen carrying capacity of such RBCs is drastically reduced but they are unaffected by malarial parasite due to their abnormal structure.
- A person with both the recessive genes for sickle cell would not be able to survive due to insufficient oxygen transport in body.
- A person with both the dominant genes would be free of sickle cell anemia but in case of malaria would not be able to survive as the normal RBCs would be hijacked by the parasite.
- A hetrerozygote would survive both in malaria and sickle cell condition since he has enough normal RBCs for oxygen transport but also has sickle cell RBCs which are unaffected by malarial parasite.
Answer:
There will be three spots that will light up.
Explanation:
There is a research paper published which demonstrated the trisomy of 21 chromosome. They found out that there are total three spots that light up in Trisomy 21 (down's syndrome's fetus). I have attached picture from research paper and provided the reference below.
