Most of the improvement in agricultural crop yields has been through inputs: getting more fertilizer to the plant, decreasing weeds, spacing, reducing loss from pests and local environmental changes. But the next big engineering feat will be with the plant molecular pathways themselves, in particular, photosynthesis. The article refers to C3 and C4 plants. What are plant geneticists trying to accomplish

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

It changes the genetic makeup to produce more yielding plants.

Explanation:

Plant geneticists trying to produce a plant which used all the inputs efficiently  in order to produce higher yield with the use of low inputs. C3 plants are inefficient plants because they uses resources not efficiently while on the other hand, C4 plants are those which utilizes resources efficiently means more growth by using less inputs or high conversion power so we can say that the Plant geneticists produce a plant by changing their genetic makeup.

what part of DNA contains the genetic code

Answers

Answer:

Genetic Code. ... stored on one of the two strands of a DNA molecules as a linear, non-overlapping sequence of the nitrogenous bases Adenine (A), Guanine (G), Cytosine (C) and Thymine (T). These are the "alphabet" of letters that are used to write the "code words".

DNA is the genetic material that has codes for genes that makes up the genotype and phenotype of an organism.

The genetic code is stored on the double helix of the DNA molecule.

They are arranged in a linear manner that does not overlap each other.

The code is represented by the alphabets of nitrogenous bases.

The purines adenine (A) and Guanine (G) and pyrimidines cytosine (C) and thymine (T) are found on the strands.

Squirrels eat acorns. Good acorn production happens when there are good growing conditions for the oak trees that make acorns. Often, there are many acorns produced one year but very few acorns the next year. What is the most likely impact on the squirrel population in years when fewer acorns are produced?

Nest size will increase.

Competition will increase.

Predation risks will increase.

Reproduction rates will increase.

Answers

Answer:

B competition will increase

Explanation:

this is because if there are less acorns then squirrels then they will all fight for the acorns and some will die to starvation. nest size won't increase because there isn't enough food for the squirrels already there. predation will decrease because there is less squirrels so that means less pray for the animals that eat the squirrels. then there is reproduction rates will increase. It is not that one because there are squirrels dying from starvation there aren't squirrels reproducing. that is why your answer is B.

describe how you would test a sample of powdered milk to see if it contained reducing sugar​

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is -  Benedict's test.

Explanation:

To test the presence of the reducing sugar in the milk the best test would be Benedict's test with the help of Benedict's reagent or solution which is a mixture of sodium carbonate, copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate, and sodium citrate. It reacts with the reducing sugars and gives a precipitate of cuprous(I) oxide.

R.CHO + Cu(II)(OH)2 ------> R.COOH + Cu(I)2 O + 2H2O

The presence of reducing sugars results in the oxidation of them by copper iron. This forms carboxylic acid and a reddish ppt. of copper oxide turning the color of solution orange, red or brown

a researcher has 15 pure bred wild mice which were bron and all were females. they were all mated with a male called Bob.All the offspring were brown/ these were then crossed among themselves with the the following results 293 brown and 115 white. determine the color of bob

Answers

Answer:

1. Brown.

2. Brown colour is dominant.

3. 2.5 : 1

Explanation:

The colour of Bob is brown because the offspring produced from mating are also brown. The dominant colour in these mice are brown due to presence of this brown colour in all mice. We know that dominant traits always appear in the form and structure of an organisms and we see all mice have brown colour so we can say that the dominant colour is brown. The ratio of brown to white in the 'grandchildren' are 2.5 : 1 means more mice has brown colour as compared to white.

a. general stimulus orgin
b. special modality of stimulus

Answers

Answer:

a. general stimulus origin: Proprioceptors, Exteroreceptors, Interoceptors

b. special modality of stimulus:  Baroreceptors, Chemoreceptors Thermoreceptors

Explanation:

The sensory modality of stimulus refers to the aspect of a stimulus, and the sensation that is felt after a stimulus has had effect. Different sensory modalities include, temperature(thermoreceptors), light, chemicals(chemoreceptors), pressure(baroreceptors), and sound.

Stimulus origin is a classification system of receptors that indicates where a stimulus stems from. Exteroreceptors detect stimuli from the external environment and an example is the receptors found in the nasal cavity. Interoceptors are found in the internal organs and typically affect the smooth muscles of these organs. Proprioceptors are found in muscles, joints and tendons.
