Answer:

The correct answer will be options-

1. plant mass related to H₂O

2.conclusions partly correct.

Explanation:

Jan Baptist van Helmont was a physician, physiologist and chemist who is known for his experiments on plants.

He performed the experiments by placing a 5-pound willow plant in a pot with 90 kg of soil. He added no nutrients to the pot for the next five years except water and found that tree weighed about 169 pounds with the almost the same amount of soil in the pot. On the basis of this, he concluded that plants mass increased because of water only but he was not aware of the photosynthesis in which carbon is utilized from the air. So, his results were partly corrected.

Thus, the selected options are the correct answer.

A scientist has an uncharacterized pea plant. She wants to determine the plant’s genotype for seed color. In order to be certain
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

Recessive phenotype plant

Explanation:

If the plant has recessive genotype then it will be easy to identify because it will have the recessive phenotype. However if the plant has dominant phenotype it can either have homozygous genotype or heterozygous genotype. To confirm if the plant is homozygous or heterozygous, a test cross can be done with plant having recessive phenotype.

If our test plant is homozygous dominant, it will pass one dominant allele to the next generation and all the offspring would have dominant phenotype. If our test plant is heterozygous dominant it will pass one dominant allele to half of the offspring and one recessive allele to another half so 50% of next generation will have dominant phenotype and other 50% will have recessive phenotype.

Hence by test cross (cross with recessive phenotype plant) it is possible to determine the genotype of the uncharacterized pea plant.

melomori [17]
In scientific reasoning, a hypothesis is made before any applicable analysis has been done. A theory, on the opposite hand, is supported by evidence: it is a principle shaped as an effort to clarify things that have already been supported by knowledge<span>.

</span>For example: “It's bright outside.” 
Hypothesis: A projected clarification for a development created as a place to begin for additional investigation.

Theory: A well-substantiated rationalization nonheritable through the methodology and repeatedly tested and confirmed through observation and experimentation

The F2 generation phenotypes for each cross are shown in Table 1. (See attachment) Which of the following is the mean number per cross of F2 generation offspring that are the result of crossing over?

Answer:

B, 2.2

Explanation:

The parental genotypes are long and black vs short and white. Therefore the phenotypes that result from crossing over are long and white, and short and black. (middle two rows of the table).  If we add up the total number of offspring with these genotypes we get 6 long whites, and 5 short blacks.

The total is 11 from 5 crosses, so the mean is 11/5 = 2.2
