Maria wanted to grow a fern in her backyard. Acting on a suggestion from a friend, she collected brown dots from the underside o
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

A. The fern transitioned from gametophyte generation to sporophyte generation.

Explanation:

Ferns undergo an ALTERNATION of GENERATIONS in their reproductive life cycle. That is, they alternate between an incospicuous gametophytic stage and a dominant sporophytic stage. The sporophyte produces haploid spores, which germinates into the gametophyte plant called PROTHALLUS.

The gametophyte produces gametes (male and female) which fuse together to form the diploid zygote, which eventually develops into the SPOROPHYTE plant via mitosis. In this question, the brown dots from the underside of a fern's leaves that Maria collected are the spores.

When she places them in a pot, the spores germinated into gametophyte stage, then formed sporophyte, which is the small leaves she noticed growing from the pot. From this, it can be observed that the fern is transitioning from GAMETOPHYTE generation to SPOROPHYTE generation.

A recessive gene located on the X chromosome is the cause of hemophilia in affected individuals. Males are more likely to have h
Mice21 [21]
<span>The right answer is D. males have only one copy of the X chromosome.

</span>Hemophilia is a rare hereditary bleeding disorder disease. The blood of hemophiliacs does not coagulate normally. Bleeding is not more important, but without treatment, they can be more frequent and last longer than normal. Hence the importance of good monitoring and good treatment.
<span>The 2 types of hemophilia A and B are recessive and X-linked, but a third of hemophilia correspond to a de novo mutation. It is observed that a man who wears the X is always affected by the disease (because he has only one X chromosome in its genome) whereas the woman is only a carrier (she has two X chromosomes, so it can carry a safe X and a mutated X without being attempted by the disease but can transmit it to her descendants). This must be taken into account for genetic counseling.</span>

What affects algal growth with increasing depth in the ocean?
andrew-mc [135]
The answer is light.

One of the factors that affect photosynthesis is light. Without light, the photosynthetic rate is reduced or even stopped which consequently affect algal growth. With increasing depth in the ocean, there is less sunlight present. Still, a<span>lgae have accessory photosynthetic plastids other than the chloroplasts</span><span> that can absorb different light in greater ocean depths. This helps them to maximum use sunlight in such conditions. But, in the end, at some particular depth, they would not be able to survive.</span>

In a strand of DNA, each single nucleotide represents a single letter of the DNA code. The following image represents a segment
OleMash [197]

The immense amount of information stored in DNA is coded with just four base nucleotides. These four nucleotides are paired by twos to form <u>complementary </u>DNA chains.

The makeup of DNA is limited to two <u>pairs </u>of nucleotides bases. One of these pairs is a pyrimidine base whilst the other forms a purine base. The four nucleotides that will make up the entire DNA code are:

  • Adenine (A)
  • Guanine (G)
  • Cytosine (C)
  • Thymine (T).

A and G will pair to form the purine base, meanwhile, Cytosine pairs with Thymine to form the <em>pyrimidine base</em>. As per the entire DNA code, A will always pair with G.

Whilst C always pairs with T. This is due to the very nature of the nucleotides themselves and will not change throughout the synthesis or duplication of DNA. Therefore, to complete the complementary strand described in the assignment we must match the letter given with its corresponding base pair, using this rule of DNA.
