Answer:
The correct answer is high rates of evaporation
Answer:
See the answer below
Explanation:
<em>An increase in the number of exons in a sequence of DNA would result in another protein with a longer amino acid sequence.</em>
<u>Exons are the coding part of a gene as opposed to introns. After transcription, the non-coding part of the gene - the introns - are removed by splicing and the exons are joined back together. The final RNA that will undergo translation consists of only exons. </u>
The longer the exons in a gene, the more the codons present in the corresponding mRNA from the gene, and the more the number of amino acids that would be translated from the mRNA. A longer amino acid chain would result in a different protein.
Hence, a mutation that causes an increase in the number of exons in a sequence of DNA would result in a different protein with a longer amino acid sequence.
Answer:
Binomial Nomenclature.
Explanation:
This method gives species a new name that consists of two latin names put together. The two latin names put together must be the species name and genus name.
Answer:
Refer to the attached image for correct labeling.
Explanation:
- The diagram is of a plant cell and its organelles.
- The nucleus houses the genetic material and controls all life processes.
- A plant cell contains one large vacuole in the center that stores water and nutrients.
- Chloroplast is the site for photosynthesis. It captures light and utilizes it and carbondioxide to produce glucose.
- Mitochondria are called the power house of the cell. Through a process called cellular respiration, they break down the glucose produced in photosynthesis into energy compounds such as ATP as well as oxygen and water.
- The endoplasmic reticulum is the site for protein sysnthesis. It contains two parts: the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) which contains ribosomes that synthesize proteins and the smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) which packages the proteins into transport vesicles.
- The nucleus contains the nucleolus that is the site for ribosome assembly.
- The cell membrane is a semi-permeable membrane that covers the cell and controls cellular transport.
- The cell wall is a hard, outer covering that protects the cell and maintains its structure and shape.

Answer:
0%
Explanation:
This question involves a gene coding for height in pea plants. The allele for tallness (T) is dominant over the allele for shortness (t). This means that allele T will be expressed over allele t in an heterozygous state.
A purebred tall plant will possess genotype: TT while a heterozygous tall plant will possess genotype: Tt. The two parents will produce the following gametes:
TT- T and T
Tt- T and t
Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the following offsprings with genotypes: TT and Tt in a ratio 1:1 will be produced.
TT offsprings are purebreed tall while Tt offsprings are heterozygous tall. Hence, based on the question, no offsprings of this cross will possess the recessive genotype (tt). This means that 0% of the offsprings of this cross will be short.
