Answer:

Plants need water and sun to create their food source, glucose. When the plant was left in the closet it didn't have access to the sun. One of the requirements of life is that all living things need energy/have a metabolism. Without food the plant eventually died.

Which temperature is required for the cell potential to be the standard cell potential?
Fiesta28 [93]
The answer is B. 25°C.

A temperature of 25°C can be considered as a room temperature. It is an optimal temperature for the most living beings which cell potential is considered as standard. It is known that at 100°C water boils, so this temperature cannot be standard, cells will degrade at this temperature. Similarly 0°C and –273°C are too cold, water of the cells will freeze, cells will freeze, and cell potential will not be optimal.

Which traits are codominant or incompletey dominant? ( these traits don’t have a clear dominant or recessive , the heterozygous
ankoles [38]

Answer:

Codominant-  traits don’t have a clear dominant or recessive

incomplete dominance-  the heterozygous condition shows a “blending” or a “middle” condition

Explanation:

In codominance, the traits are expressed equally in the phenotype thus they don't have a clear dominant or recessive state. For example the ABO blood group alleles. The alleles A and B are codominant each being expressed equally.

In incomplete dominance the traits show intermediate expression where one allele expresses itself more strongly than the other. An example in man is seen in the inheritance of the disease sickle cell anaemia. Heterozygote who carry the sickle cell gene are said to have sickle cell trait and as such the carrier allele (HBa) has a stronger influence on the phenotype than the dominant alle (HBs).
