When the water availability of a plant's environment decreases, the plant can respond by closing its stomata. This reduces the a

mount of water that the plant loses through its leaves due to transpiration. Closing the stomata also reduces the amount of carbon dioxide that the plant can take in through its leaves, which will most likely result in A. a decreased rate of photosynthesis. B. no change in the cellular processes of the plant. C. an increased rate of photosynthesis. D. an increased rate of cellular respiration.

Answer:

A. a decreased rate of photosynthesis.

Explanation:

Stomata is a structure in the leaves of higher plants, which they use majorly for the purpose of gas exchange. However, the process whereby plant loses water called transpiration also occurs via the stomata. In a situation whereby the availability of water in a plant's environment is low, the plant responds by closing its stomata in order to conserve water (reduce the amount of water that the plant loses through its leaves due to transpiration).

Closing the stomata by plants means not allowing ample carbon dioxide (CO2), which is needed for the process of photosynthesis to occur, to enter the plant. This will most likely result in a DECREASED RATE OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS.

Una mujer lleva en uno de sus cromosomas X un gen letal recesivo (l), y en el otro alelo dominante normal (L). ¿Cuál es la propo
nlexa [21]

Question in English:

A female carries a recessive lethal gene (l) on one of her X chromosomes, and a normal dominant allele (L) on the other. What is the sex ratio to be expected in this woman's dependency if she marries a normal man?

Answer:

2/3 females

1/3 males

Explanation:

Females have two X chromosomes (XX) and males have an X and a Y chromosome (XY).

The genotype of the female is XLXl. The genotype of the male is XLY, since he is normal.

The possible genotypes are:

<u>                            XL                  Xl</u>

<u>XL</u>                     <em>XLXL             XLXl</em>

<u>Y</u>                       <em>XLY               </em><em>XlY</em>

<em />

All female offspring will be normal as they will always have one normal copy of the X chromosome from their father.

50% of the male offspring will be normal, but 50% will inherit the lethal gene from their mother.

Because the allele is lethal, that means XlY males will not be born.

That means 2/3 of the children will be females, and 1/3 will be males.

How will the movement of water affect a survey if it is transferred from a hypotonic solution to a hypertonic solution?
Inga [223]

Answer:

The cell will shrink

Explanation:

In an hypotonic solution, water moves into the cell through the process of osmosis. This shall be due to the high concentration of water in the hypotonic solution than that in the cytoplasm.

Due to this movement, the cell bulges out.

If the cell is transferred to a hypertonic solution, water shall move out of the cell thereby making the cell shrink. This is because water concentration in the cytoplasm shall be higher than that in the hypertonic solution.

Effect to the survey shall be an experience of the exact opposite of the previous immersion.

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

The effect might be due to the gene expression.

Explanation:

The effect might be due to the variation in the gene expression in the organism. In this way, the variety of the genetic pool is likely to result in a diversity of the gene pool or genome. Because of the mutation and the environmental factors, there is likely to be a slight variation of the species. This results in a slight difference in the phenotypic expression.
