Answer:

Genetic or DNA tests on the offspring.

Explanation:

The DNA test performed on the offspring, revealed that there was only genetic material from the mother. Then we are at the presence of asexual reproduction, which is extremely rare in such a complex organism. This form of reproduction is called parthenogenesis, where there is no fertilization by the male.

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Move three sodium ions out of a cell and two potassium ions into a cell while consuming an atp for each cycle

Explanation:

By pumping three (3) Na+ to the outside and two (2) K+ to the inside of the cell, there is a net positive charge on the outside leaving the inside of the cell electronegative. This process is achieved by the Na+/K+ pump and is a process that consumes ATP energy.

This is much more important in a neuron cell who ¾ of its energy is used to maintain  a -70mV resting potential that is important for the nerve to pass impulse when depolarised.

In other cells, the gradient created in important in maintaining the homeostatic osmolarity inside the cell to avoid swelling and lysis of cells due to uptake of excess water by osmosis. The Na+ gradient is also used to import other molecules into the cell such as glucose and amino acids. These molecules are coupled with Na+ and then are absorbed efficiently as the Na+ flow back inside the cell down the Na+ concentration gradient.

Two peeled large carrot pieces are placed in beakers one containing water and the other containing sugar solution. The carrot pi
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

a)Difference in physical state observed:

The difference between the two carrots is that the carrot in the plain water appears bigger or slightly swollen while the carrot in the salt water appears smaller and has shrank in length and slightly in width.

b)Process involved that has caused the changes:

The process that has taken place is osmosis.

c)Why has the process occured:

The process occurs due to the semi-permeable membrane of the cells of carrots that allow water either in or out of the cells.

In the plain water, the process that takes place is endosmosis where the cells of the carrot draw in water and hence the carrot increases in mass. The carrot in the salt water, on the other hand, experiences exosmosis, where water is drawn from the carrot's cells and the carrot becomes dehydrated and shrinks in length and width.

d) Beaker 1 : Water

Beaker 2 : Sugar Solution

e) example of endosmosis is absorption of capillary water from the soil by the root.

another example of endosmosis is is entrance of water in the xylem vessel from the soil by the root.
