Deduce how two genes for different traits that are on the same chromosome can fail to be inherited together.

Biology

This is the consequence of the exchange of genetic material called crossing over. It is known that diploid cells carry two versions of each gene, namely, two alleles. Meiosis results in haploid gametes with only one set of chromosomes. Crossing over occurs in meiosis where homologous chromosomes pair up and exchange different segments of the genetic material. So, although they are on the same chromosome, alleles for one trait will be exchanged, and for another will not. This results in chromosomes with new combinations of genes. Without crossing over, all traits on one chromosome will be inherited together, so a parent will produce gametes with only two different combinations and genetic variation will be significantly decreased.

Where is the best place to live to avoid the problems caused by<br> climate change and why?
Helen [10]
In the us- Anchorage, Alaska because the natural environment is far more resilient to a major weather event than a large city setting and can better adapt to changing sea levels or temperatures. With less people and man-made infrastructure, there are fewer things to be maintained in the area, allowing the wilderness to react naturally to changing weather patterns and climate.
outside the us- Denmark because the country has continued to make strides forward, in air quality in particular. On the previous report, 78.8% of the population was exposed to unsafe levels of fine particle air pollution; now, the figure has dropped to 56.9%. Denmark tops the list of countries doing the most to protect the environment, among them having at least half its energy consumption come from renewables by 2030 and to be independent of fossil fuels by 2050.
