Answer: Option E) the products have less potential energy than the reactants
Explanation:
Though the actual graph is not displayed, but, whenever reactants occupy a position higher than the product on the graph of reaction coordinate vs time taken, it means the reactants (AB+CD) have molecules with higher energy bonds than the products AC +BD
Thus, the reaction of AB + CD to yield AC+BD will occur spontaneously with the release of energy.
Answer:
10 chromosomes/sister chromatids
Explanation:
Prophase is the first stage of cell division (mitosis). Prior to the cell entering the actual division stage, it undergoes a phase where it prepares its content and most importantly undergo the duplication of its genetic material (DNA). This DNA are found as chromosomes. It undergoes replication of its DNA in the S-phase of interphase stage.
Since Arabidopsis thaliana has 10 chromosomes, and each chromosome holds one DNA molecule, 10 molecules of DNA will be present in the mustard plant's genome. These 10 molecules of DNA will be replicated on another copy of chromosome which is identical to the template. This chromosomes are called SISTER chromatids i.e. replicated chromosome. Each sister chromatids are held together at the centromere and are considered one individual chromosome until they separate during anaphase stage.
Hence, at the Prophase stage, before separation, each sister chromatid (replicated chromosome) is considered as one chromosome. Thus, in the mustard plant with 10 chromosomes, it will possess 10 sister chromatids or chromosomes at the Prophase stage.
N.B: When sister chromatids separate during anaphase stage, they will be regarded as individual chromosomes.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Note, Telangana is known to be an area whose climate is usually semi-arid, that is, it is an area that is dry and receives some small amount of rain.
Thus, plants in the Telangana region would usually possess the following adaptive features;
- ability to survive under extreme heat
- growing longer roots than normal in other to find water in the soil
- efficient water conservation especially in their stems.
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia or the CLL is among the most common type of leukemia affecting the adults. The lymphocytic leukemia starts in the lymphocytes. Lymphocytic leukemia is different from the lymphoma (which also occur in the lymphocytes) as it only occurs in the bone marrow and the blood. The person suffering from CLL is susceptible to an array of infections. Among the various infectious agents, the CLL patient is the most susceptible to the Staphylococcus aureus. This agent causes skin infections, pneumonia, toxic shock syndrome and many other life threatening diseases. The person becomes susceptible to its attack as the immunity of his is weakened beacuse of the damage to the lymphoctic cells.
