High concentrations of salt can inhibit the growth of bacteria by causing the bacteria to shrink because water leaves the bacterial cell.

<h3>What is a Hypertonic solution?</h3>

This is defined as a type of solution which has a large amount of particles which are dissolved thereby making it have a high concentration.

High concentrations of salt applied to the outside of the meat means it is hypertonic and therefore causes the bacteria to shrink because water molecule leaves the cells thereby destroying their structure preventing metabolic reactions from occurring which leads to their death.

The genes for miniature wings (m) and garnet eyes (g) are approximately 8 map units apart on chromosome 1 in Drosophila. Phenoty
Anestetic [448]

The following phenotypic classes reflect offspring that were generated as a result of a crossover event

  • wild type
  • miniature wings
  • garnet eyes

Explanation:

When the miniature wings and garnet eyes links up with the 8 map unit that are present between them. After that the presence of two recombinant classes must complement together and make 8% of total i.e. they contribute 4% each. together the parental classes make up to 92% by contributing 46% one.

This can be understood through a phenotypic ratio calculation, which can be expected from it.

wild type: 4% x 800 = 32

miniature wings: 46% x 800 = 368

garnet eyes: 46% x 800 = 368

miniature wings, garnet eyes: 4% x 800 = 368
