Q:

In a plant cell, DNA may be found in

A) only in the nucleus and mitochondria. B) only in the nucleus and chloroplasts
C) in the nucleus, mitochondria, and chloroplasts. D) only in the nucleus.
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) in the nucleus, mitochondria, and chloroplasts.

Explanation:

All of the genetic information in a cell was initially thought to be confined to the DNA in the chromosomes of the cell nucleus.

It is now known that small circular chromosomes, called extranuclear, or cytoplasmic, DNA, are located in two types of organelles found in the cytoplasm of the cell.

These organelles are the mitochondria in animal and plant cells and the chloroplasts in plant cells.

Chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) contains genes that are involved with aspects of photosynthesis and with components of the special protein-synthesizing apparatus that is active within the organelle.

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) contains some of the genes that participate in the conversion of the energy of chemical bonds into the energy currency of the cell—a chemical called adenosine triphosphate (ATP)—as well as genes for mitochondrial protein synthesis.

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Vitamins B & C

The two different types of vitamins are fat-soluble vitamins and water-soluble vitamins.

 

Fat-soluble vitamins :

 Vitamins A, D, E and K — dissolve in fat before they are absorbed in the bloodstream to carry out their functions. Excesses of these vitamins are stored in the liver, and are not needed every day in the diet.

 

Water-soluble vitamins :

Vitamins dissolve in water and are not stored by the body. Since they are eliminated in urine, we require a continuous daily supply in our diet. The water-soluble vitamins include the vitamin B-complex group and vitamin C.

 

Water-soluble vitamins are easily destroyed or washed out during food storage or preparation.

Q:

Commercial banks are funded through which of the following?

A) Stock holders B) Government funding
C) Services D) Customer deposits
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Customer deposits

Explanation:

A commercial bank is a type of financial institution that accepts deposits, offers checking account services, makes business, personal and mortgage loans, and offers basic financial products like certificates of deposit (CDs) and savings accounts to individuals and small businesses. A commercial bank is where most people do their banking, as opposed to an investment bank.

 

Commercial banks are funded through customer deposits. These banks make money by providing loans and earning interest income from those loans. The types of loans a commercial bank can issue vary and may include mortgages, auto loans, business loans and personal loans. A commercial bank may specialize in just one or a few types of loans.

 

Customers who deposit money into these accounts effectively lend money to the bank and are paid interest. However, the interest rate paid by the bank on money they borrow is less than the rate charged on money they lend.
