What is the difference between translocation and addition?

Biology
1 answer:
Setler79 [48]3 years ago
4 0
The answer is

Recombination is an exchange between homologous chromosomes (e.g. chr 1 from mom x chr 1 from dad). Since it usually happens during meiosis, these strands are later separated. Recombination can be unequal or equal, but it's usually equal, and unequal crossovers are generally quite small (but a common source of addition/deletion).

Reciprocal translocation refers to an exchange between different chromosomes (e.g. chr 1 x chr 2). It is considered a large scale mutation (resulting in a large addition to one chromosome, and a large deletion in another).

Golf courses make use of fertilizers to keep the grass green and healthy. Using your knowledge of osmosis, explain how applying
Nostrana [21]
Osmosis is the diffusion of water. Water tends to diffuse to the area with a higher concentration of solute. (Particles) In this case, Im assuming the fertilizer is the solute because it contains chemicals. Therefore, since water tends to diffuse to higher concentration of solute, the water in the grass will diffuse out to dilute the fertilizer on the surface of the grass. Without water, the grass will be dehydrated and shrivel up and die. Hopefully you find my answer helpful!

Which term best describes the movement of water molecules in and out of a cell
stiv31 [10]

The movement of water molecules in and out of a cell is called osmosis.

Osmosis, or the diffusion of water molecules, is when water molecules flow in or out of a cell from high to low concentrations (down their concentration gradient). The ultimate goal of osmosis is to establish equilibrium between the cell and its outer environment.

Hope this helps!
