sap is translocated from areas of supply, called sources, to areas of metabolism or storage, called sinks. Which of the following statements about source and sink are TRUE?

a.) Sinks include any nonphotosynthetic organs of the plant and organs that do not produce enough photosynthetic products to support their own growth or storage needs

b.) Sources include exporting organs that are capable of producing photosynthate in excess of their own needs

c.) During the growing season of the first year, storage root is a sink, when it accumulates sugars received from the source leaves. During the second growing season the same root becomes a source

d.) Roots, tubers, developing fruits, and immature leaves, which must import carbohydrate for normal development, are all examples of sources tissues

Find the correct combination of the source and sink pattern of translocation.

#Unit 8. Inheritance Biology

In humans, albinism (unpigmented skin, hair, and eyes) is due to an enzymatic deficiency, and it is an autosomal recessive trait. Suppose that in a small country of one million people (“Generation 1”), there are 500 aa albinos and 9000 Aa heterozygous carriers. What is the probability that a child will be albino if: Both parents are members of Generation 2, and one parent is albino and the other is non-albino.
