Lipids are organic compounds that contain the same elements as carbohydrates: carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. However, the hydrogen-to-oxygen ratio is always greater than 2:1. More important for biological systems, the carbon-to-hydrogen bonds are nonpolar covalent, which means that lipids are fat soluble and will not dissolve in water. There are four biologically important lipids:

This is a tissue that makes up most of the fleshy part of a plant. The fleshy part of the plant is shown. Which does this tissue
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

Dermal and vascular tissue

Explanation:

The dermal system of plants works together with the vascular system to carry out sweating.

The dermal tissue is wound by the epidermis and periderm. The epidermis is varied in its structure and function, among which its main function is that of protection and vegetal covering. These cells are covered by a cuticle, responsible for providing an impermeable characteristic to the cell. In this region, there is the presence of guard cells, which are responsible for the process of closing and opening pores, called stomata. This structure serves to control the plant's internal gases, such as the entry and exit of water vapor, CO2 and oxygen. The periderm, in turn, is the secondary protective tissue in vegetables. It has a loose organization, allowing an aeration of the internal tissues of the roots and stems. It is in this region that we find mainly the suber, the best known being cork, which is a classic example of periderm.

The vascular system is formed by xylem and phloem. Xylem is the main conductive tissue of water, nutrients and minerals. Its composition is formed by dead cells, with lignin impregnation. It is found more internally in relation to phloem, also acting as an important supporting tissue, as it has special cells called tracheids and vessel elements. Both are elongated cells that have points on their wall to communicate with one cell to another. Phloem, in turn, is formed by living cells, being the main responsible for transporting elaborate sap from the leaves to the stem and roots. It is located just below the plant's bark, formed by a special cell called sieving elements, because that cell has sieving areas, through which the protoplasm of the adjacent cells bind. This region is known as the riddled plaque. These sieved tube elements also have the characteristics of being associated with special parenchymal cells called companion cells.

You want to identify dominant /recessive relationship for skin color for a new frog species that you found in the rain forest. A
noname [10]

Answer:

bright blue trait = recessive

yellow trait = dominant

Explanation:

let the letter B represent the gene for skin colour.

This means that the dominant gene is 'B' while the recessive gene is 'b'

A dominant gene is one that is exhibited phenotypically in the presence of both gene variants (heter0zygous state - Bb) while a recessive gene is only expressed phenotypically when it is in a h0m0zygous state (bb)

In order to find out the genotype of the parents, let us consider each cross one after the other.

1. A bright blue female and a bright blue male produce all blue progeny.

2. A yellow female and a yellow male produce a mix of both bright blue and yellow progeny

From statement 2, it can be deduced that the trait for yellow colour is dominant because a cross of the parents exhibiting this trait produces bright blue offsprings too, meaning that the genetic composition of the parents contains the gene that codes for yellow colour. Since these parents show a yellow colour in a heterozygous state, then the trait for yellow colour is dominant.

Therefore, the genotypes of the parents in each case include:

1. A bright blue female and a bright blue male produce all blue progeny. (bb × bb)

2. A yellow female and a yellow male produce a mix of both bright blue and yellow progeny (Bb × Bb)
