A student in a biology class crossed a male Drosophila melanogaster having a gray body and long wings with a female D. melanogas

ter having a black body and apterous wings. The following distribution of traits was observed in the offspring Number of Offspring 42 Phenotype Gray body, long wings Black body, apterous wings 41 Gray body, apterous wings 9 Black body Iong wings Which of the following is supported by the data? (A) The alleles for gray body and long wings are dominant. (B) The alleles for gray body and long wings are recessive. (C) Genes for the two traits are located on two different chromosomes, and independent assortment occurred D) Genes for the two traits are located close together on the same chromosome, and crossing over occurred between the two gene loci.

Answer:

Answer is D "Genes for the two traits are located close together on the same chromosome, and crossing over occurred between the two gene loci"

Explanation:

Traits are distinguishing characteristics of an organism. The Phenotypic crossing of the Drosophila melanogaster specie with Gray body and long wings over that of the same specie but female with black body and apterous wings produced a total of 100 offspring, which showed a that genetic crossing were done on the closely related chromosomes of the body traits for the individual species.

Rotenone, a toxic compound isolated from plants, strongly inhibits the transfer of electrons from iron-sulfur centers in Complex
Darya [45]

Answer:

(A) It prevents electron flow from the iron-sulfur centers in complex 1 to the ubiquinone. Due to reduction in electron transfer rate, there is a decrease in the production of ATP which is dangerous for some insects and fish over time.

(B) It also prevents electron flow from cytochrome b to cytochrome c1 at the complex III which leads to QH2 accumulation. If oxidized Q is not present, these is alteration of electron flow and the production of ATP is altered.

(C) Rotenone only prevent electron transfer into the chain at Complex 1  but it does not affect electron transfer at Complex II. Although there is slow ETC, it does not stop completely. However, Antimycin A prevents the oxidation of QH2, the final electron acceptor crom complex I and complex II. Thereby, stopping the production of both ETC and ATP. It can be concluded that antimycin A is a more potent poison.

Explanation:

Rotenone prevents electron flow from the iron-sulfur centers in complex 1 to the ubiquinone. Due to a reduction in electron transfer rate, there is a decrease in the production of ATP which is dangerous for some insects and fish over time. Antimycin A also prevents electron flow from cytochrome b to cytochrome c1 at the complex III which leads to QH2 accumulation. If oxidized Q is not present, there is an alteration of electron flow and the production of ATP is altered. Antimycin A is more potent than rotenone.

Can someone please do a summary on how wind works? 7-9 sentences please I will mark brainliest!
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

Wind is the movement of air. It forms when air moves from areas of high-pressure to areas of low pressure. These pressure differences are caused by temperature differences on Earth's surface. The movement is a result of different places on Earth receiving different amounts of energy from the sun. Two types of winds are global and local. Global wind systems determine weather patterns for the entire planet. Local winds are sea and land breezes that occur due to uneven absorption of solar energy.

hope this helps :D

Why are cells so small?
Harrizon [31]
The surface area to the volume ratio gets smaller as the cell gets larger. If the cell grows beyond a certain limit not enough material will be able to cross the membrane fast enough to accommodate the increased cellular volume.

Hope that helps
