You purchase two identical houseplants and place them side by side on your windowsill. You water both plants equally. You leave

one plant, plant A, alone, but you inject florigen into the cells of the shoot apical meristem of plant B. What would you expect to occur?

Answer:

Both plants will have equal conditions in these experiments including the water and other components except florigen. Florigen is a hormone that is responsible for triggering the flowering in a plant. It acts in the apical meristem of growing tips and buds.

As it is injected in the apical meristem of the plant so it will act on the plant b and flower would be induced at its apical meristem. Once the flower will be gone plant will grow taller but only from the lateral meristem of the plant b.

Plants use carbohydrates to build things such as cellulose. How do plants acquire these building blocks to build mass?
Liula [17]
<span>In order to obtain the building blocks for larger carbohydrates, such as cellulose and starch, plants rely on photosynthesis to produce a smaller carbohydrate, glucose. During the process of photosynthesis, atmospheric carbon dioxide and water are combined in the presence of light to produce glucose and oxygen. This glucose is then polyemerized in order to create larger, more complex carbohydrates such as cellulose.</span>

How Can Sex-Linked Traits Be Identified
kkurt [141]

If a gene is found only on the X chromosome and not the Y chromosome, it is said to be a sex-linked trait. Because the gene controlling the trait is located on the sex chromosome, sex linkage is linked to the gender of the individual. Usually such genes are found on the X chromosome. The Y chromosome is thus missing such genes (See Diagram above.). The result is that females will have two copies of the sex-linked gene while males will only have one copy of this gene. If the gene is recessive, then males only need one such recessive gene to have a sex-linked trait rather than the customary two recessive genes for traits that are not sex-linked. This is why males exhibit some traits more frequently than females.

Red-green colorblindness

Male Pattern Baldness

Hemophilia

<span>Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy</span>

The right answer is: Leptin .

Leptin is a hormone closely linked to the regulation of energy consumption and expenditure: appetite, metabolism, and hunger.

A hormone is a protein with a messenger function. This means that once released into the bloodstream, she goes to another part of the body to transmit a message to specific receptors.

Leptin is manufactured in white adipocytes (adipose tissue) where triglycerides (fats) are stored and acts on the hypothalamus.
