Answer:
(B) open stomata only at night, limiting water loss because of heat and low humidity.
Explanation:
CAM plants are found in the regions characterized by very hot and dry environmental conditions. These plants reduce the water loss through transpiration by exhibiting CAM photosynthesis.
They open the stomata during night time when the air is cooler and rich in moisture. They take in CO2 during night time and fix it into the oxaloacetate which in turn is converted into malate and is stored in the vacuoles.
During day time, stomata remain closed to prevent water loss and the CO2 trapped during night time (released by decarboxylation of malate) enter the Calvin cycle.
Answer:
The phosphorus in all biological tissues can be traced back to phosphorus weathered from rock.
Answer:
a. Trisomic
Explanation:
A trisomy is a genomic phenomenon whereby a particular chromosome is present in three copies. In this case, the trisomy involves the chromosome P, being this species a tetraploid with 5 pairs of homologous chromosomes (2n = 10). In humans, the trisomy for chromosome 21 is one of the most common types of aneuploidies that lead to the Down syndrome by producing alterations in gene expression patterns that are associated with changes in the phenotype
Answer:
The tryptophan synthase enzyme catalyzes the synthesis of tryptophan. This enzyme is found in all kingdoms except animals.
Tryptophan synthase has a hydrophobic channel that facilitates the passage of an intermediate from one enzyme to the other during the biosynthesis of tryptophan, which makes faster the metabolic process.
Answer:
Na+ only
Explanation:
Depolarisation of membrane refers to the change in the resting membrane potential of the membrane of a cell which is usually -70mv to a more positive value.
This value changes when the positive ions move inside the cell which increases the positive charge inside the cell.
In the myocardial cell, the sodium ions move inside the cell which changes the potential towards the more positive side as a result of which the signals for contraction arises.
Thus, Na+ only is correct.
