any takers on these? 😃 kthanksyourockplease! 😉 1. (20 points) Determine whether the following statements are true or false. If false, briefly explain why. a. Due to light-driven electron transport in the chloroplast, the thylakoid space is more acidic than the stroma. True False (Why?) b. Both C4 and CAM plants minimize photorespiration by bypassing the use of rubisco in the first step of carbon fixation. True False (Why?) c. Cyclic photophosphorylation involves both photosystems I and II, and results in the production of NADPH, O2, and ATP. True False (Why?) d. The Calvin cycle enzymes are embedded in the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast. True False (Why?) e. During metaphase I of meiosis, tetrads (pairs of homologous chromosomes) align in random order at the metaphase plate. True False (Why?) f. During metaphase of mitosis, tetrads (pairs of homologous chromosomes) align in random order at the metaphase plate. True False (Why?) g. The cell cycle refers to the ordered sequence of events (G1, S, G2, and M phases) in the life of a dividing cell. True False (Why?) h. If a gene is located on the X or Y chromosome it must encode a protein that directly contributes to sex determination. True False (Why?) these were the last ones…promise… 🙂 --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/hw-sucks-need-help-math-genetics/17068)._
