A plant's photoperiod is the amount of time each day that the plant receives sunlight. A plant with a 12L:12D photoperiod receiv

es 12 hours of light and 12 hours of dark per day. A researcher investigated whether photoperiod affects the development of flower buds in chrysanthemums, a type of flowering plant. She maintained three samples of chrysanthemums that did not initially have any flower buds under different photoperiods. After two weeks, the researcher recorded the presence or absence of flower buds in each sample. The researcher's results are shown in the table. Sample Photoperiod Results 1 13L:11D fully developed flower buds formed on all plants 2 14L:10D partly developed flower buds formed on some plants 3 15L:9D no buds formed on any plant Which statement is best supported by the researcher's findings?

Answer:

13L:11D

Explanation:

Based on the photoperiod there are two types of plants -  

a) Short day plant  

b) Long day plant

Here the term short and long day do not mean that the provided length of day are the critical length of day required for reproduction. But opposite to that it means that the length of the day required for reproduction must be  

a) Shorter than the defined length of day for short day plant  

b) And longer than the defined length of day for long day plant  

Chrysanthemums  is a short day plant and thus option 1 with 13L:11D will produce fully developed flower buds

Option A is correct 13L:11D

What are linked genes?
kumpel [21]

Answer:

Genes lying close to each other on chromosome

Explanation:

When genes lie close to each other on chromosome,  they are inherited together as an intact unit in meiosis cell division and such genes are termed as linked genes.During meiosis the genetic material (allele/genes) is exchanged between the homologous parent chromosome which causes  chromosome recombination and thus the formation of linkages These genes have high chances of recombination as they lie close to each other.

Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

During presentation of APC-bound antigen, macrophages and dendritic cells secrete the cytokine, interleukin-1, that activates T helper cells

Explanation:

Macrophages interact with T cells in order to generate T cell activation in target organs, and are themselves activated by inflammatory messenger molecules (cytokines) produced by the T cells.

Macrophages produce toxic chemicals, such as nitric oxide, that can kill surrounding cells.

During presentation of APC-bound antigen, macrophages and dendritic cells secrete the cytokine, interleukin-1, that activates T helper cells

Which is a purpose for which a pedigree chart might be prepared? to determine the gender of a fetus to determine if a fetus has
Anarel [89]
The purpose for which a pedigree chart might be prepared is to identify the pattern of inheritance of a particular trait.
This pedigree chart is created so as to see which traits this new offspring has inherited from its ancestors and which may possibly be transferred onto a new offspring later on in its life. It is formed in order to find patterns of inheritance and see what the most important traits that get inherited are.

How is a warm front different from a cold front?
Anarel [89]
Warm fronts often bring stormy weather as the warm air mass at the surface rises above the cool air mass, making clouds and storms. Warm fronts move more slowly than cold fronts because it is more difficult for the warm air to push the cold, dense air across the Earth's surface.
