In the two maps that show the allele frequency of sickled hemoglobin (HbS) and malaria endemicity in Africa, it can be seen that in the regions with no malarial outbreak or malaria-free areas coincide with the grey to lighter shades of red in the heat map of the allele frequency of HbS. The color coding in the heat map for the allele frequency tells us that the frequencies range from 0 to 2.02 in the malaria-free areas.

Hence the answer is A)When an area is malaria free, the HbS allele frequency is between 0 and 2.02.

The sugar in RNA is, the sugar in DNA is
suter [353]

Answer:

Last choice: ribose; deoxyribose

Explanation:

Ribose (otherwise known as D-ribose) is a sugar found in RNA (ribonucleic acid). It alternates with phosphate groups to create the “backbone” of the RNA polymer.

Deoxyribose (sugar in DNA) is one of the three components of nucleotides for DNA. Each nucleotide consists of a phosphate group and a nitrogenous base:  adenine, thymine, cytosine, guanine, and deoxyribose.

Glucose is a type of sugar which is a common and crucial energy source in living organisms and is often a component in various carbohydrates. Plants can create glucose by going through a process called photosynthesis, and once it's done with the process, they use the glucose (sugar) as their food for energy.

What is the source and sink for xylem and phloem?
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

Sap moves through phloem via translocation, the transport of dissolved materials in a plant. Unlike the xylem, which can only carry water upward, phloem carries sap upward and downward, from sugar sources to sugar sinks: Sugar sources are plant organs such as leaves that produce sugars

Why might parasitic roots have developed in plants like the mistletoe?
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

Mistletoe is a parasite – it steals water and nutrients from trees. Technically, it is a “hemiparasite”, which means that it can generate some of its own resources through photosynthesis – it just needs that energetic kick from the sun to fuel the biological siege and subsequent invasion of the tree
