How is selective breeding carried out in plants? Explain with two examples.

Biology
1 answer:
grandymaker [24]3 years ago

Answer:

A plant is first selected by identifying the plant with phenotype of interest, such that good genes combination for desirable trait are picked out. The plant is then allowed to grow and self fertilise or cross fertilise with other plants of similar phenotype of interest.

Examples:

We can take advantage of this to selectively breed animals or plants, choosing parents with particular characteristics to produce offspring that have those characteristics. For example, if we breed tall parents together and exclude shorter parents, the offspring should inherit “tall” gene variants that make them tall.

Which compounds combine with water vapor to form acid precipitation?
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

Rain, sleet or snow

Explanation:

Acid rain results when sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOX) are emitted into the atmosphere and transported by wind and air currents. The SO2 and NOX react with water, oxygen and other chemicals to form sulfuric and nitric acids. These then mix with water and other materials before falling to the ground.

To study the fate of carbon during glycolysis under aerobic conditions, cultured cells are fed with 14C-glucose labeled in vario
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

D. The methyl group of acetyl CoA becomes radio-labeled

Explanation:

During the steps in glycolysis, the carbon at position 1, becomes C-1 in dihydroxyacetone phosphate during the cleavage of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate to dihydroxyacetone phosphate and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate. Subsequently on isomerization of dihydroxyacetone phosphate to glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate, C-1 of dihydroxyacetone phosphate becomes C-3 of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate.

Furthermore, in pyruvate, the end product of glycolysis, C-3 is converted to a methyl group which then becomes the methyl group in the acetyl-CoA molecule produced from the oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate.

Since the radioactive 14-C of radio-labeled glucose occupies position 1, it will become the methyl group of acetyl-CoA.

Someone please help ill give you brainliest!!!
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

Work is the transfer of energy , Energy is the capacity for <em>doing</em> work , and Power is work being done in a unit of time.

There are 2 types of energy

Kinetic Energy : Energy of Motion

Potential Energy : Stored Energy

When calculating work energy and power you use WORK = W=Fd

Because energy is the capacity to do work , we measure energy and work in the same units. Power's SI unit of measurement is the Watt, representing the generation or absorption of energy at the rate of 1 Joule/sec. Power's unit of measurement in the English system is the horsepower, which is equivalent to 735.7 Watts.
