Answer:
Starch molecules are too large to diffuse into cells.
Explanation:
As mentioned "Starch molecules are actually long chains of glucose molecules"
Thus they are broken down to glucose To make their transport (by diffusion) easier.
Answer:
False
Explanation:
Facultative anaerobes are organisms that can grow in both the presence or absence of oxygen.
Organism that suffer a poisonous reaction or that can't live in the presence of oxygen are called obligate anaerobes.
Answer:
See the answer below
Explanation:
Let the disorder be represented by the allele a.
Since the disease is an autosomal recessive one, affected individuals will have the genotype aa and normal individuals will have the genotype Aa or AA.
Since the four adults are carriers, their genotypes would be Aa.
Aa x Aa
Progeny: AA 2Aa aa
Probability of being affected = 1/4
Probability of being a carrier = 1/2
Probability of not being affected = 3/4
(a) The chance that the child second child of Mary and Frank will have alkaptonuria = 1/2
(b) The chance that the third child of Sara and James will be free of the condition = 3/4
(c)
(d) If someone has no family history of the disorder, their genotype would be AA.
AA x aa
4 Aa
<em>The chance that a child with alkaptonuria will have an offspring with alkaptonuria if the child's mate has no family history </em>= 0
(e)
(f) <em>The chance that a child with alkaptonuria will have an offspring with alkaptonuria if the child's mate has no family history</em> = 0
Unlike animal cells, plant cells have chloroplast and a cell wall.
Answer:
Parthenogenesis is a type of reproduction that does not require a mate. It’s rarely seen in birds and higher vertebrates. Parthenogenesis involves the formation of a zygote. But this zygote is formed without fertilization. In parthenogenesis, in the absence of a male gamete, the ovum develops directly in the zygote.
Explanation:
- The sentence in the given passage that points out the similarity between the parthenogenesis and sexual reproduction is “Parthenogenesis involves the formation of a zygote”.
- It is a form of reproduction in which an ovum is produced without fertilization.
- Zygote formation us a common process in sexual as well as asexual type of reproduction process. Thus, this is the answer of the question.
