No, a macromolecule is a large organic molecule

Hope this helps

No it is not. I think a macromolecule is related to a bigger molecule.

marusya05 [52]

Answer:

a is the middle gene.

Distance [b-a]= 24.7 mu

Distance [a-c]= 15.8 mu

Distance [b-a} = 40.5 mu

Explanation:

A homozygous wild-type female drosophila (a⁺b⁺c⁺/a⁺b⁺c⁺) is crossed with a homozygous recessive male (abc/abc). <u>The order of the genes here is arbitrary. </u>

The F1 is heterozygous for the three genes (a⁺b⁺c⁺/abc). The F1 females were test crossed (crossed with abc/abc males).

The F2 shows the following phenotypic ratios:

  • 320 a⁺b⁺c⁺
  • 308 a b c
  • 102 a⁺ b c⁺
  • 112 a b⁺ c
  • 66  a⁺ b⁺ c
  • 59 a b c⁺
  • 18 a⁺ b c
  • 15 a b⁺ c⁺

Total = 1000

The male parent is homozygous recessive for the 3 genes, so the observed phenotypes of the offspring correspond to the gametes received from the mother.

Recombination during meiosis is a rare event, so the most abundant gametes are always the parentals:  a⁺b⁺c⁺ and abc.

The least abundant gametes, following the same logic, are the double crossovers (DCO): a⁺bc and ab⁺c⁺.

<h3><u>1st. Determine the gene order</u></h3>

Compare the parental and the DCO gametes. The allele that is switched corresponds to the middle gene. In this case, gene a is in the middle of the other two.

<h3><u>2nd Determine the single crossover gametes</u></h3>

The F1 mother that generated all 8 types of gametes had the genotype b⁺a⁺c⁺/bac (correct order of genes).

  • The single crossover (SCO) gametes resulting from recombination between genes b and a are b⁺ac and ba⁺c⁺.
  • The single crossover (SCO) gametes resulting from recombination between genes a and c are b⁺a⁺c and bac⁺.
<h3><u>3) Calculate the recombination frequencies between genes </u></h3>

Recombination frequency (RF) = #Recombinants/Total progeny

  • RF [b-a]= (102+112+18+15)/1000= 0.247
  • RF [f-br]= (66+59+18+15)/1000= 0.158
<h3><u /></h3><h3><u>4) Calculate the distance in map units </u></h3>

Distance (mu) = RF x 100

Distance [b-a]= 0.247 × 100 = 24.7 mu

Distance [a-c]= 0.158 × 100 = 15.8 mu

Distance [b-a} = 24.7 mu + 15.8 mu = 40.5 mu

<h3><u>The gene map therefore looks like: </u></h3>

b------------24.7 mu--------------------------a---------15.8 mu-----------c
