odes for a form that is active from pH 6.7 to 7.2. Heterozygous individuals show enzyme activity from pH 6.2 to 7.2. Why does this wider range of activity show overdominance

This range shows overdominance because heterozygous individuals make a mixture of two proteins with different optimums. Overdominance is a genetic phenomenon.

<h3>Overdominance and genetics</h3>

Overdominance is a phenomenon that occurs when the phenotype of a heterozygous individual is found outside the range of homo-zygous individuals.

This phenomenon (overdominance) is relatively common in genetics.

Overdominance confers an adaptive advantage to heterozygous individuals.

dem82 [27]

Answer:

c. Two sister chromatids did not separate into the proper daughter cells during anaphase.

Explanation:

The observed cell is undergoing mitosis which does not include separation of homologous chromosomes. During anaphase of mitosis, two sister chromatids of each chromosome separate from each other. They move to opposite poles. This results in equal distribution of two complete sets of chromosomes to each daughter cell.

However, the failure of two sister chromatids of a chromosome during anaphase would lead to the formation of two abnormal daughter cells. One of the daughter cells would have one extra chromosome (2n+1) while the other would lack one chromosome from the diploid set (2n-1).

Compare the process of carbon fixation in C3 plants to that of C4 plants.
Gre4nikov [31]

Carbon fixation is the process in which plants remove the carbon from atmospheric carbon dioxide and turn it into organic molecules like carbohydrates.

Because different type of plants are located in regions with different conditions they are different types of carbon fixation.  Plants that live in arid regions need to conserve water, while plants that live in more moist conditions will not need to conserve water.

The carbon fixation in C3 plants is one-step process. An oxidation reaction occurs because of the enzyme RuBisCo.  During the oxidation some of the energy used in photosynthesis is lost in a process known as photorespiration.
