Answer:
46 chromosomes are present in somatic cell
Answer:
Allopatric speciation
Explanation:
Speciation is the gradual process by which two different species are formed from a single species due to evolution.
Allopatric speciation will occur when the speciation is due to geographical isolation of a species to the extend it prevents or interferes with the gene flow. Therefore, the populations can not mate with each other and they evolve separately.
This is what happened to the fox species when they were separated by a mountain range.
Answer:
Explanation:
To calculate the recombination frequency, we have to know that 1% of recombinations = 1 map unit = 1cm. And that the maximum recombination frequency is always 50%.
The map unit is the distance between the pair of genes for which every 100 meiotic products, one of them results in a recombinant one.
So, en the exposed example:
- J and K are autosomal genes
- J and K are separated by 60 M.U.
- 60 M.U. means that there is 60% of recombination.
Cross) J K / j k x j k / j k
Gametes) JK Parental jk, jk, jk, jk
jk Parental
Jk Recombinant
jK Recombinant
One map unit equals 1% of recombination frequency. This means that every 100 meiotic products, one of them is a recombinant one.
1 M.U. -------------- 1% recombination
60 M.U. ------------ 60% recombination
30% Jk + 30% jK
100 M.U. - 60 M.U. = 40 M.U.
40M.U.--------------40 % Parental (Not recombinant)
20% JK + 20% jk
Punnet Square) JK jk Jk jK
jk JK/jk jk/jk Jk/jk jK/jk
J K / j k = 20%
j k / j k = 20%
J k / j k = 30%
j K / j k = 30%
Phosphate groups are polar and allow the cell to exist in water.
Chromatin, the DNA is unraveled in the nucleus, but during mitosis, the DNA will condense into chromosomes(two sister chromatids).
