The recombination frequency of the two gene pairs is 3%.
The number of recombinant offspring(r.o.) / total number of offspring x 100% = recombination frequency(θ):
r.o./total x 100% = θ
30/100 x 100% = 3%
Recombinant offspring are children that have a different allele combination to their parents.
For example, say a mother has a haploid cell with the alleles AB and the father has a haploid cell with the alleles ab. These combine to make a diploid cell with the sequence Aa+Bb.
Formation of Recombinant Offspring :
Recombination can happen in two different ways; independent assortment and crossing over.
- Independent assortment is when the maternal and parental DNA are mixed during meiosis, creating a new gene sequence.
- Crossing over happens during the first stage of meiosis when the two homologous chromosomes are paired and a portion breaks off on the same loci then reconnects to a different end. Crossing over can only happen when there isn't a physical linkage of the parental alleles.
Recombination frequency (θ) is the frequency with which a single chromosomal crossover will take place between two genes during meiosis. A centimorgan (cM) is a unit that describes a recombination frequency of 1%. In this way we can measure the genetic distance between two loci, based upon their recombination frequency. This is a good estimate of the real distance. Double crossovers would turn into no recombination. In this case we cannot tell if crossovers took place. If the loci we're analysing are very close (less than 7 cM) a double crossover is very unlikely. When distances become higher, the likelihood of a double crossover increases. As the likelihood of a double crossover increases we systematically underestimate the genetic distance between two loci.
When two genes are close together on the same chromosome, they do not assort independently and are said to be linked. Whereas genes located on different chromosomes assort independently and have a recombination frequency of 50%, linked genes have a recombination frequency that is less than 50%.

Answer:
Flat surface parallel to mesophyll walls position
Chloroplast assumed this position in condition <u>of low light intensities or optimum light intensities</u> for the reception of maximum amount of incident light. necessary for photosynthesis
Perpendicular to the incident light position.
During condition of <u>extreme high light intensit</u>ies chloroplast aligned in this position to avoid the loss of electrons from the chlorophyll from absorption of photons; (PHOTOXODATION.)
Basically photooxdation is a wasteful process which destroys the plants.

Answer:
The correct answer is - Option B.
Explanation:
Before the Industrial Revolution, the light color moths were predominant so that they can blend in with the light-colored trees and lichens in their environment. After releasing coal smoke from factories, the trees became darkened, and the light-colored moths become an easy target for predator birds to spot.
Over time, the frequency of the dark moth increased due to they had a higher survival rate in habitats affected by the air pollution and it blends with darker coloration blended with the sooty trees. This is a shift in the population’s genetic variance toward the new, phenotype.
In graph B, light color moth frequency decreases, and after natural selection increases over time and after a decrease in evolution the dark color again decreases.
