Answer:
During photosynthesis a plant absorbs light energy using the pigment chlorophyll. This allows it to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose. This glucose is:
transported to the growing parts of the plant for use in respiration
transformed into cellulose, proteins and oils
turned into starch for storage
Therefore, to test if a plant has been photosynthesising, you can test the leaf to see if starch is present.
The presence of drugs or chemicals in an organism's environment can also influence gene expression in the organism. Cyclops fish are a dramatic example of the way in which an environmental chemical can affect development.
Answer:e
retroviruses
Explanation:
Retroviruses appear to cause cancer in their host by mutating the host gene sequences allowing for the activation of some potentially oncogenic genes to be expressed. They do this by inserting their proviral DNA into the host genome at specific regulatory sequences deregulating cellular signaling and transcriptional controls.
