As you saw while performing thin layer chromatography, photosynthetic pigments are mostly hydrophobic substances soluble in orga

nic solvents but not in water-based solutions. How does this feature explain the location of these pigments within the chloroplast

Answer:

The photosynthetic pigments' hydrophobic characteristic assists them to stay within the chloroplast. It is because the pigments like chlorophyll comprise a fat-soluble hydrophobic phytol chain that permits them to get entrenched within the chloroplast's lipid membrane.  

On the other hand, the remaining part of the pigment's structure is found in the external composition of the membrane. Therefore, it makes the site within the chloroplast permeable.

If you were to cross a large redwood tree, like for an example a sequoia, from the middle of the trunk you would first cross the annual rings, indicators of the trunk growth over the years, then after that you would cross the phloem, the ''piping'' of the tree responsible for the transport of water throughout the tree and in the end you would cross the tree's bark, the protective layer on surface of the trunk.

You know that the narrow-sense heritability of milk production in Ayrshire cattle is 0.587. You perform an experiment where you
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Explanation:

Narrow sense heritability - h​​​​2

​​​​​​selection differential - S

Selection differential is calculated from the difference between the population average and the parental population.

Breeder's equation:

Response to selection - R = h​​​​​​2S

Mean milk production of 10% cows for experiment = 8.9L/hr

Mean milk production of parental population = 5.1L/hr

Selection differential S= 8.9 - 5.1 = 3.8 L/hr

Response to selection = 0.587 × 3.8 = 2.23
