The movement of nutrients into the vascular stele requires energy, unlike the movement of water that does not require energy. This energy is provided by the phloem. Sugars are produced in the leafs, as part of the photosynthesis process, so whenever a new root is growing, or a fruit needs to grow, the phloem gets in action. With the help of the water the sugars get in the phloem, which can most simply be seen as an elevator inside the plant, that is moving nutrients up and down, on the places in which they are most needed.

Answer:

Since albinism is an autosomal recessive trait, it means that both parents must possess the gene for it, for the albinism to occur.

Thus, David could be the father if both Rose and David are carriers(heterozygotes) for the albino allele.

In many states, the legal limit for all bacteria present in pasteurized milk is not to exceed 20,000 CFU/mL. You have been away

zaharov [31]

Answer:

a. The formula for finding the number of colonies in a given volume is,

CFU/ml, here CFU is the colony forming units or the number of colonies formed in a volume plated in ml × dilution

The dilution factor given in the question is 1 × 10⁻⁴ and the number of colonies given is 186. Therefore, the number of bacteria present in the given 1 ml of the milk is,

CFU/ ml = 186 / 1 × 10⁻⁴ = 186 × 10⁴.

Hence, the concentration of bacteria in the milk is 186 × 10⁴ CFU/ml.

b) The limit of the bacterial concentration in the pasteurized milk is 20000 CFU/ml, however, it can be seen that the sample of the milk possess more concentration of bacteria than the desired value. Therefore, the milk is not safe to drink by Public Health Standards.

Mendel investigates stem length, or height in pea plants what if he had investigated human height instead why would his results

WINSTONCH [101]

Human height is one of the traits that belong to traits that cannot easily be placed in discrete phenotypic classes (there is not only tall and short people, there is continuous variation of height between them). Such traits are usually controlled by more than one gene (polygenic traits).

On the other hand, a Mendelian trait is controlled by a single locus.
