Consider the ABO “blood type” gene. This single gene has three alleles called A, B, and O. There are four resultant “blood types” (phenotypic classes), as follows: C

                         

Assume Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium,  the frequencies of the A and B alleles are 0.26 and 0.07, respectively. You now examine the ABO blood types in a new population. You observe that the A, B, and O blood types all have equal frequencies in this population. What are the frequencies of the A and O alleles in this population?

Energy partitioning between two photosystem protects them from quick dessipation or quick inactivation this energy partitioning take place by a protein kinase that can phosphorylate a specific threonine residue on the surface of LHCII, what is the role of LHCII in phosphorylated and non-phosphorylated state?

a.) LHCII in phosphorylated state migrate towards the PSI in the unstacked region and delivers energy to the PSI 

b.) LHCII in nonphosphorylated state moves back to the grana and delivers energy to the PSII

c.) LHCII in phosphorylated state migrate towards the PSII in the stacked region and delivers energy to the PSI 

d.)  LHCII in nonphosphorylated state moves towards the stroma lamellae unstacked region and delivers energy to the PSII 

Which of the following combination is CORRECT?

Under moderate excess light Quantum efficiency decreases , but the maximum photosynthetic rate remains unchanged and caused by the diversion of absorbed light energy toward heat dissipation—hence the decrease in quantum efficiency this term is known as

The evaporation of water requires energy, when water evaporates from a leaf (transpiration), it removes large amounts of heat from the leaf and thus cools it. The human body is cooled by the same principle, commonly known as
