Chromosome iv in drosophila is a very small chromosome and carries a tiny amount of genetic material. fruit flies that are triso

mic for chromosome iv have no apparent phenotypic abnormalities, and they retain their fertility. among the genes on chromosome iv is one for which a recessive allele ey produces the "eyeless" phenotype. a male that is trisomic for chromosome iv and has the genotype + + ey is crossed to a diploid eyeless female with the genotype eyey.

If I assume that random segregation of chromosomes takes place during spermatogenesis and all sperms are viable then I will take the male through meiosis.
The three chromosomes are +, +, ey
Then you double them into sister chromatids which is ++, ++, eyes.
If I consider all possible alignments during metaphase as, the three homologous pairs and gather at the metaphase plate.
Remember that any two of the three pairs will join together and odd pair out will line up at the metaphase plate with no partner pair.
There are three different arrangements which are possible for the three homologous pairs. 
Two of the three possible arrangements will segregate and make two sperm with +ey and two sperm with +. The other arrangement will segregate and make two sperm with ++ and two sperm with ey.
When meiosis is being done, then the sperm genotypes and their proportions are, 
1/3+ey, 1/3+, 1/6++, 1/6ey

Global air circulation cells move air _____.
tino4ka555 [31]

Global air circulation cells move air "clockwise in the Northern hemisphere and counterclockwise in the Southern hemisphere".

<u>Answer:</u> Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

Global circulation is defined as the global connection of winds, through which the requisite heat transport  from tropical latitudes to polar latitudes carried out. Each hemisphere comprises with three cells, such as Hadley, Ferrel and Polar cell, air circulation take place in this through the complete depth of the troposphere.

The worldwide circulation cells allow passage of air in clockwise pattern in the northern hemisphere while in southern hemisphere circulate in counter-clockwise pattern from equator to poles but in different directions and at different latitudes.

In a pea plant that is heterozygous for seed color what
asambeis [7]

Answer:

1/4.

Explanation:

The Mendel is known as father of genetics. He explained the concept of dominance, law of segregation and law of independent assortment while working on the pea plant.

The cross between the heterozygous seed color (Ss × Ss), result in the 3/4 dominant phenotype ( SS, Ss and Ss ) and 1/4 recessive phenotype with alleles ss.

Ss   ×   Ss

progeny obtained are SS, Ss, Ss and ss.

Thus, the correct answer is option (3).
