Just read the book and then circle the words you don't understand learn them and then read it again
1. Respiration-process by which plants release CO, while they break down the sugar
2. Animals eat plants- They break down sugars and starches by a process of metabolism and the products are energy water, and CO2 molecules.
3. Decomposition-when plants die, their parts (wood, leaves) decay bringing the carbon into the ground
4. Root respiration- respiration that occurs in roots, adds to soil respiration (the amount of CO2 produced through root respiration is determined by the root biomass ).
Answer:
In cross-pollinating plants that either produce yellow or green pea seeds exclusively, Mendel found that the first offspring generation (f1) always has yellow seeds. ... that a trait may not show up in an individual but can still be passed on to the next generation.
Explanation:
Answer:
False
Explanation:
The sequence of amino acids in a protein is determined by the DNA and the structure of protein thus formed is a linear sequence. These linear structures undergo structural changes due to the formation of bonds between the constituent molecules.
When bonds are formed by the interactions between the CO group of one chain and the -H group which forms the backbone is known as the secondary structures. Two types of arrangements arise of this that is the helical and pleated sheet.
When the bonds are formed between the side groups or the R group of the amino acid therefore the amino acid structure formed is known as the tertiary structure.
Thus, false is the correct answer.
Answer:
Bacteriophages are attaching to bacterial cell wall and injecting genetic material.
Explanation:
Bacteriophage:
A bacteriophage (bacteria eater) is a type of virus that infects bacteria. Bacteriophages are composed of genetic material (DNA or RNA) enclosed in a protein shell or capsid.
Following are steps of bacteriophage infection:
- Bacteriophage attaches to cell surface receptors on the surface of the bacterium.
- Depending upon the type of phage, the bacteriophage either injects its DNA or RNA into the bacterium or enters as a whole. In this image, the bacteriophage T4 is represented which injects its genetic material into the host cell.
- The phage's genetic material hijacks the cellular machinery of the host and replicates itself within the host.
- After replication, the phages burst open the bacteria cell and are released. This is called the lytic cycle of bacteriophage infection.
- In another type of infection cycle, called the lysogenic cycle, the bacteriophage genome gets incorporated into the host genome, known as a prophage. This prophage lies dormant.
* The second step of the infection cycle is pictured here.
