Answer:
The genes are linked, and the arrangement is coupled (one homolog has both dominant alleles; the other homolog has both recessive alleles).
RY
/
ry
Explanation:
R_= colored aleurone
rr= colorless aeurone
Y_= green plant
yy= yellow plant
They do a testcross between a plant of unknown genotype and phenotype and a plant that is homozygous recessive for both traits (yr/yr) the following F1 is obtained:
- 88 Colored, green (RY/ry)
- 92 colorless, yellow (ry/ry)
- 8 colorless, green (rY/ry)
- 12 colored, yellow (Ry/ry)
If the genes assorted independently, all of the possible offspring phenotypes would appear in the same frequency. However, they obtained 2 phenotypes much more abundant that the other two. Since recombination is a rare event during crossing over, when two genes are linked the recombinant gametes are produced less frequently than the parentals.
We can propose that the phenotypes Colored, green (RY) and colorless yellow (ry) are the parental gametes, and the unknown plant has the arrangement RY/ry, with both genes linked.
Answer:
By designing suitable gene therapies in order to restore target gene expression.
Explanation:
Cystic fibrosis and muscular dystrophy are inherited genetic disorders associated with serious health problems. Cystic fibrosis is caused by mutations in the gene that encodes for the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein, and it is a condition associated with abnormal production of sticky mucus that leads to problems in the lungs and the digestive systems. On the other hand, muscular dystrophy is produced by mutations in genes localized on the X chromosome such as, for example, the gene 'dystrophin'. Gene therapy is an experimental approach used to compensate abnormal gene function by introducing exogenous genetic material and thus restore their altered protein products. Consequently, personalized gene therapies can be useful to treat inherited disorders such as cystic fibrosis and muscular dystrophy.
Answer:
The answer however is yes you can, but you would probably die. The body mechanism for crying under water works just as fine above as below the water. So you can cry tears, they would just be mixed with the rest of the water.
