Answer:

The correct answer is - 0.4.

Explanation:

Recombination frequency is the number of offspring that are produced in the cross with recombination of chromosomes of both parental chromosome. The recombination frequency can be derived by the number of recominant offspring by the total number of offspring.

So, Recombinant frequency = \frac{200}{500} = 0.4,

(number of recombinant offspring = 500 - 300 = 200)

Thus, the correct answer would be - 0.4

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

Saturated fats/ solid fats

Explanation:

Vegetable oils amongst other unsaturated oils are liquids at room temperature while saturated oils are solids or spreadable at room temperature.

Industrially, vegetable oils are hydrogenated; hydrogenation is the process of adding hydrogen to an unsaturated compound to make it saturated. This then makes these hydrogenated vegetable oil, saturated which makes them solids as earlier stated, they are also called cis - fatty acids.

Trans - fatty acids as well are also unsaturated oils which are hydrogenated industrially to give saturated fatty acids which are called artificial tran-fats. They are found in most commonly found in baked and fried goods.

Forskolin is a drug used by scientists to render adenylyl cyclase (AC) constitutively (always) active. What will this do to to P
Paul [167]

Answer:

Both the PKA and IP3 levels increases. Hence, the correct answer is a and b.

Explanation:

Forskolin refers to a drug that increases the levels of cAMP or cyclic AMP by stimulating the enzyme adenylyl cyclase. The cAMP is an essential secondary messenger that ensures proper biological response of cells to hormones and other signals and also takes part in communication between the cells.  

When Forskolin increases the levels of cAMP, it will stimulate the enzyme PKA or protein kinase A and at the same time also enhances the intracellular concentration of Ca2+ and IP3 (inositol 1,2,5 triphosphate).

How do day-neutral and intermediate-day photoperiod plants differ in their requirements?
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

Photoperiod signifies towards the time that an animal or a plant gets exposed to light in a twenty-four-hour duration. Different types of plants need different durations of light exposure to follow their respective life cycles.  

On the basis of getting exposed to light differently, the plants are differentiated into short-day plants, long-day plants, day-neutral plants, and intermediate-day plants. The day-neutral plants will undergo flowering at any length of the day, given that there is the availability of minimum amount of light, which is essential for usual growth. For example, beans, tropical plants, cotton, and others.  

On the other hand, the intermediate-day plants will not flower if the days are too long or too short, like different varieties of grasses.
