Options have not been provided for the question. They are as follows:
What is the correct order for these genes using a linkage map analysis?
A. Z-X-Y-W
B. X-W-Z-Y
C. W-X-Y-Z
D. Y-W-Z-X
E. Z-X-W-Y
F. Y-X-W-Z
Between which two genes is crossing over most likely to occur?
A. B and D
B.X and Z
C. X and W
D. X and Y
E. W and Z
F. Y and W
G.Y and Z
Answer:
Correct order for these genes using a linkage map analysis: E. Z-X-W-Y
Two genes between which the crossover is most likely to occur: G.Y and Z
Explanation:
According to linkage concept, recombination frequency between two genes = distance between two genes in cM
Here, smallest distance is between X and W ( 7cM ) so they are present next to each other. Distance between X and Y is 17cM and between W and Y is 10cM so W is present between X and Y. Distance between X and Z is 13 cM. Since on one side of X, W and Y are already present Z lies on the other side. So, the final gene order comes out to be, Z-X-W-Y.
According to the gene order, Y and Z genes are farthest from each other. Chances of crossover or recombination increases with increasing distance between genes. So, Y and Z have the highest probability to show crossing over.
If pathogen A is more resistant to an erythromycin disc on a Kirby-Bauer plate compared to B, then A will have a smaller zone of inhibition compared to B.
<h3>What is the zone of inhibition?</h3>
The zone of inhibition can be defined as a circular region in a plate where pathogenic agents cannot grow.
This zone (zone of inhibition) can determine the action of different drugs like antibiotics for a given disease.
The zone of inhibition test is also widely known as the Kirby-Bauer Test due to their developers.

Answer:
Explanation:
Mechanical digestion physically breaks down food, like when teeth macerate food into a bolus. The stomach contracts and relaxes in a churning motion. ... Chemical digestion occurs when the bonds within larger food molecules are broken, creating smaller molecules that the body can use.
Answer:
I would predict that the the following generation will have a large amount of pups that are eaten by the sharks.
This question seems like its asking about natural selection.
"Natural selection is the process when organisms better adapted to their environment tend to survive and produce more offspring"
Explanation:
If the marine biologist did not give the pups medicine in the first generation, the pups that were less fit or not adaptive to the enviroment to naturally survive the infections would have died. This would have prevented these pups from passing on their genes.
The next generation would consists of pups that are more immune to the sickness or more fit for their enviroment and might experiece less pups to die.
