As plants absorb water from the soil, they deplete the soil of water near the surface of the roots, This depletion due to

#Unit 6. System Physiology – Plant
  1. increases Hydrostatic pressure (ψp) in the water near the root surface
  2. establishes a pressure gradient with respect to neighboring regions of soil that have higher ψp values
  3. increase Hydrostatic pressure(ψp) in the water near the root surface
  4. Establishes a pressure gradient with respect to neighboring regions of soil that have lower ψp values

The gene that is mutated in cases of cystic fibrosis encodes an ion transporter protein normally expressed in the respiratory and digestive tracts along with other locations. Individuals homozygous for the most common mutation in this gene (ΔF508) died at very early ages prior to the advent of advanced medical intervention. Despite this, the mutation exists at relatively high frequency in populations of European descent. One potential explanation is that heterozygotes for such mutations may be relatively immune to the lethal effects of diseases such as typhoid fever. Which statement below is most accurate?

If a cross is made between two parental homozygous allele female Red phenotype  (RR) cross with male white phenotype (rr)  resulting F1 progeny  is all red phenotype (Rr), if reciprocate this cross the resulting progeny will be change.

a) Gene expression will be the parental origin dependent

b) uniparental gene contribution and also the expression of the gene is uniparental

c) Gene expression independent over parental origin

d) Gene contribution is biparental but the expression of the gene is uniparental

This prediction concludes that,
