How does paraquat affect photosynthesis? What do they prevent from being made?

Biology
1 answer:
Rashid [163]3 years ago
5 0
Paraquat blocks photosynthesis by accepting electrons from photosystem I (PSI) and preventing electron transport to nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) and become a reduced monocation radial that reacts with oxygen yielding superoxide anion.

Paraquat, with its distinctive mode of action, is one of few chemical options that can be used to prevent and mitigate problems with weeds that have become resistant to the very widely used non-selective herbicide glyphosate.

Imagine that a newly discovered, recessively inherited disease is expressed only in individuals with type O blood, although the
erastova [34]

Complete question:

Imagine that a newly discovered, recessively inherited disease is expressed only in individuals with type O blood, although the disease and blood group are independently inherited.

A normal man with type A blood and a normal woman with type B blood have already had one child with the disease. The woman is now pregnant for a second time.

Assuming that both parents are heterozygous for the gene that causes the disease, what is the probability that the second child will also have the disease? Express your answer as a fraction using the slash symbol and no spaces (for example, 1/2).

Answer:

The probability that the second child will also have the disease is 1/16.

Explanation:

<u>Available data:</u>

  • Two genes independently inherited: one for blood type, the other for disease
  • Man with type A blood  x  Woman with type B blood
  • Both parents are heterozygous for the gene that causes the disease; Dd

If the man has A blood, and the woman has B blood, and they already have an affected child, this means that they must be heterozygous for blood type too.
