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

Biology

Alborosie3 years ago

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.

If two organisms show a developmental homology you would also definently expect them to?
san4es73 [151]

If two organisms show a developmental homology you would also definitely expect them to share genetic homologies.

Homology is the similarity between two organisms. This similarity can be of body structures, physiology, etc. This homology is generally due to shared ancestral history between two organisms. For example, the wings of a bird and bats are homologous structures, this is because they have a common anatomy.

Genetic homology refers to the arrival from the same gene from a common ancestor. The same gene is shared between two organisms who may not be related in any other matter. Genetic homology can even be depicted by the sequences of a protein.

Check all that are characteristics of the esophagus. Check All That Apply
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

Option (A) and (D).

Explanation:

Esophagus may be defined the long tube like structure that connect the throat with the stomach. The partially digested food from the buccal cavity to the stomach is pass down through the esophagus.

The mucosa of the esophagus contains the thick layer of the nonkeratinized squamnous epithelium. The smooth muscles are present in some layers only. The two layer of the muscle that are superior to the one third of the muscularis are the skeletal muscle.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A) and (D).

Which feature of a membrane describes whether molecules can cross the
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

If it's a permeable membrane then it will allow certain molecules in. If it's impermeable then it won't allow molecules in. Therefore it is the deciding feature of whether something can go into the membrane.
