What is the main adaptive advantage of the C4 and CAM photosynthesis strategies over C3 photosynthesis?
a.They make it possible for the plant to use the Calvin cycle during the day.
b.They allow the plant to synthesize glucose without CO2.
c.They allow the plant to hold its breath and still perform photosynthesis.
d.They allow the plant to synthesize glucose under hot conditions.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

D. They allow the plant to synthesize glucose under hot conditions.

Explanation:

C4 and CAM photosynthesis strategies allow for plants to produce glucose in hot and dry conditions.

Plants such as cacti, which live in hot conditions, have the advantage from their C4 and CAM systems.

In contrast to C3 photosynthesis, C4 and CAM systems allow plants to get more CO2 from the air and help them conserve water.

This then allows them to efficiently create glucose with the CO2.

So, the correct answer is D.

Answer 2

Answer:

D. they allow the plant to synthesize glucose under hot conditions.

Juvenile hormone levels are high in insect larvae, but must decrease in order for metamorphosis to occur. Chemicals similar to ecdysone and juvenile hormone are widely used commercially to control insect pests

Answers

Answer:

Certain plants contain compounds similar to ecdysone which serve as a defense against insects. False

Juvenile hormone levels are high in insect larvae, but must decrease in order for metamorphosis to occur. True.

Chemicals similar to ecdysone and juvenile hormone are widely used commercially to control insect pests. True

Explanation:

The plants produce toxic chemicals such as terpenoids, alkaloids, anthocyanins, phenols, and quinones as a defense against insects. Juvenile hormone levels are high in insect larvae but its concentration decrease when the insect transform into adult stage and in order to  occur metamorphosis. Ecdysone and juvenile hormone are widely used as insecticide because it prevents the insects to transform from larva to adult so if they can't mature they can't harm the plants or other things of our environment.

The Offspring produced by a cross between two given types of plants can be any of the three genotypes denoted by A, B, and C. A theoretical model of any of the three genotypes denoted by A, B, and C should be in the ratio 1:2:1. For experimental verification, 100 plants are bred by crossing the two given types. Their genetic classifications are recorded. Do these data contradict the genetic model

Answers

Complete question:

The offspring produced between two given types of plants can be any of the three genotypes, denoted by A, B and C. A theoretical model of gene inheritance suggests that the offspring of types A, B and C should be in a 1:2:1 ratio (meaning 25% A, 50% B, and 25% C). For experimental verification, 100 plants are bred by crossing the two given types. Their genetic classifications are recorded in the table below.

Genotype       Observed frequency

    A             →        18 individuals

    B             →        55 individuals

    C             →        27 individuals

Do these contradict the genetic model?  

Use a 0.05 level of significance.

Determine the chi-square test statistic.

Answer:

Do these contradict the genetic model? No, according to the chi-square test, there is not enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis of the population being in equilibrium.  

Explanation:

Available data:

Crossed genotypes: twoGenotypes among the offspring; Three → A, B, and CExpected phenotypic ratio → 1:2:1Total number of individuals, N = 100A = 18 individualsB = 55 individualsC = 27 individuals

So, let us first state the hypothesis:

H₀= the population is equilibrium for this locus → F(A) = 25%,  F(B) = 50%, F(C) = 25%  H₁ = the population is not in equilibrium

Now, let us calculate the number of expected individuals, according to their expected ratio.

4 -------------- 100% -------------100 individuals

1 ---------------  25% -------------X = 25 individuals A

2 --------------  50% -------------X = 50 individuals B

1----------------- 25%--------------X = 25 individuals C

                                                  A                             B                           C

Observed                         18                            55                         27 Expected                         25                           50                         25 (Obs-Exp)²/Exp                1.96                        0.5                        0.16

(Obs-Exp)²/Exp

A)  (18 - 25)²/25 = 49/25 = 1.96

B)  (55 - 50)² / 50 = 25/50 = 0.5

C)  (27 - 25)²/25 = 4/25 = 0.16

Chi square = X² = Σ(Obs-Exp)²/Exp  

∑ is the sum of the terms O are the Observed individuals: 2 in chamber B, and 18 in chamber A.  E are the Expected individuals: 10 in each chamber  

= ∑ ((O-E)²/E) = 1.96 + 0.5 + 0.16 = 2.62

Freedom degrees = 2

Significance level, 5% = 0.05  

Table value/Critical value = 5.99

X² < Critical value

2.62 < 5.99    

These results suggest that there is not enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis. We can assume that the locus under study in this population is in equilibrium H-W.

What is mid-ocean ridges?

The central parts of the oceans have mid-ocean ridges. The mid-ocean ridges are volcanic underwater mountain ranges.

There is constant propelling of magma, and as the magma cools off quickly it creates new crust.

This results in the mid-ocean ridges gaining heights of up to 1.5 km above the surrounding area.

Where do majority of tornadoes occur in the United States?

Answers

Answer:

central united states

Explanation:

mainly in this area because of cold air coming in from canada and warmer air coming from the gulf of mexico meeting and causing tornados.

Answer:

A majority of tornadoes that occur in the United States, occur in the  Midwest and Southeast region of the United States.

Explanation:

Tornadoes can impact just about every U.S. state, but the majority of these storms are concentrated in states throughout the Midwest and Southeast. In fact, of the average 1,137 tornadoes that occur in the United States each year, 64% of them form in states located in “Tornado Alley” and “Dixie Alley”, two regions with a disproportionately high frequency of tornadoes due to atmospheric conditions that persist for long stretches of the year.

With an average of 140 tornadoes annually, Texas is the most tornado-prone state in the U.S., followed by Kansas with 80 and Florida with 59, according to National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration data.

Top five states with the most tornadoes

Texas - 140

Kansas - 80

Florida - 59

Oklahoma - 56

Nebraska - 54
