A farmer wants to breed a variety of taller corn.

Biology
1 answer:
Julli [10]2 years ago
7 0

The farmer can use variation in the height of the corn plants to cross them and produce taller corn plants. The farmer's work will be most effective if height is determined by codominance.

<h3>Codominance</h3>

Codominance refers to the fact that different alleles of a given gene locus can affect a phenotype.

The farmer's work will be most effective if height is determined by codominance because he/she will need to select hybrid plants in a generation to breed them.

The farmer can observe the proportion of taller offspring that are affected by the disease in order to analyze if heigh and disease resistance genes are linked.

If these genes are linked, then it is required to cross plants and then select recombinant offspring with desired features (in this case, taller and disease resistance plants).

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer: This is because animals (like humans) have more organelles to store in our bodies than bacteria. This makes sense because without all of our organelles we wouldn't be able to function properly. This is just another one of those form=function things.

To efficiently provide the ideal amount of nitrogen fertilizer, some farmers make use of a "chlorophyll meter" that measures the
NikAS [45]

Answer:

Chlorophyll is a green pigment found in chloroplast in plants. It absorbs sunlight during the process of photosynthesis. It is a chelate molecule. In a chelate molecule a central metal ion forms bonds with a large organic molecule made of carbon, hydrogen and other elements like nitrogen or oxygen.

In chlorophyll, magnesium is the central metal ion and it is bonded to a large organic molecule called as porphyrin. Porphyrin constitutes four nitrogen atoms to which the central magnesium is bonded in square planar arrangement. Since chlorophyll is responsible for the green color of the leaves, more the green color more the chlorophyll content and more is the nitrogen content. Hence, chlorophyll meter measures this green light and finds out if the plant needs more or less nitrogen.
