Answer:
Polygenic inheritance.
Explanation:
Polygenic inheritance is also known as multi gene inheritance that are included in the group of non epistatic gene. The genes of the polygenic tratit are additive in nature.
More than two different genes are involved in the polygenic inheritance. This inheritance controls the trait of the organism by multiple genes. Polygenic inheritance shows the different pattern as compared with Mendelian inheritance and environment also plays an important role in the polygenic inheritance. Human skin color is controlled by seven genes and hence referred as polygenic inheritance.
Thus, the answer is polygenic inheritance.
Answer:
1. Plants are green due to presence of green pigment chlorophyll in their chloroplasts.
2. ATP is used to make organic sugars (glucose)
Explanation:
Chlorophyll pigments absorb the light in the blue and red regions and reflect all the green light. When the reflected green light reaches our eyes, the plants look green in color. The color of the object is determined by the color of the reflected light.
Splitting of water during the light-dependent phase of photosynthesis and electron transfer through cytochrome b6/f complex generates the proton concentration gradient which in turn drives the synthesis of ATP. Calvin cycle refers to the set of reactions that fix the atmospheric CO2 into organic sugars such as glucose. The ATP molecules formed during light reactions are used to drive the endergonic reactions of the Calvin cycle.
Answer:
Plants transfer carbon dioxide in the atmosphere to carbohydrates in the biosphere.
Explanation:
Plants are unique organisms being that they have the unique ability to manufacture their own food via the process of PHOTOSYNTHESIS. Hence, they are called AUTOTROPHIC. Photosynthesis is the metabolic process by which plant cells make sugar (glucose) in the presence of sunlight.
However, in the photosynthetic process, plants require inorganic source of carbon called CARBON DIOXIDE (CO2) and water to perform the process. The chemical overall reaction of photosynthesis is as follows:
6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2
This explains the role of plants in the carbon cycle as they help transfer carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere to carbohydrates in the biosphere (living organisms).
a glacier made of ice can erode a landscape made of rock because there can be water held within the rock that gets frozen, and because water expands when it is frozen the rock breaks apart and the glacier grinds its' way 'downhill' (down a mountain range, a good example of this is the Appalachian mountain range) and carves out a significant amount of material that is below it, as well as the materials frozen inside of the glacier. so glaciers can freeze the rocks, and then scrape away any material that is softer than rock.
