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

3.interphase is the first phase of the cell cycle and the longest where the cell grows and prepares for mitosis through dna replication

5.chromosomes form in the first phase of mitosis, prophase

6.chromosomes line up along the equator during the second phase of mitosis, metaphase

4 sister chromatids separate during anaphase

What is the function of the phytoplankton in ocean ecosystems?--- A. producer B. consumer C. scavenger D. decomposer
Elodia [21]

The right answer is A. producer.

Phytoplankton are all cyanobacteria and microalgae (microscopic plants) present in surface waters and drifting with the currents. Unknown because invisible to the naked eye, phytoplankton is the lung of our planet. Thanks to photosynthesis, it produces more than half of the Earth's oxygen and consumes half of the carbon dioxide. Phytoplankton is essential for marine life because it is also at the base of the ocean food chain.
