What do we mean when we sat technology helps “ redistribute" natural resources?
rusak2 [61]

Technology is an important factor that an change substances into resources. ... It is their ideas, knowledge, inventions and discoveries that lead to the creation of more resources. Each discovery or invention leads to many others

In addition, technological advances are helping to bring down the cost of renewable energies

Explanation:

Resource distribution refers to the distribution of resources, including land, water, minerals, wealth in general among corresponding geographic entities (states, countries, etc.). Resource distribution refers to the geographic occurrence of resources on earth. In other words, where resources are located.

Which of the following correctly explains the difference between mitosis and meiosis?
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

Below is a definition of the distinction between mitosis as well as meiosis.

Explanation:

<u>Mitosis:</u>

  • The genetic information (DNA) in something like a cell throughout mitosis has been duplicated as well as split evenly into two cells.
  • An orderly sequence of circumstances known as the cell cycle moves through it's dividing cell.

<u>Meiosis:</u>

  • Meiosis seems to be the mechanism whereby the gametes throughout sexually reproducing individuals are produced.
  • Gametes have been formed in gender gonads and just like the new cells, constitute two complete sets of chromosomes.

Genetic linkage mapping for a large number of families identifies 4% recombination between the genes for Rh blood type and ellip
Cloud [144]

Answer:

0.2404

Explanation:

The genes R/r and E/e are linked and there is 4% recombination between them.

<u>The possible genotypes and phenotypes are:</u>

  • RR or Rr: Rh+ blood type
  • rr: Rh- blood type
  • EE or Ee: elliptocytosis
  • ee: normal red blood cells

Tom and Terri each have elliptocytosis (they are E_), and each is Rh+ (they are R_).

Tom's mother has elliptocytosis (E_) and is Rh- (rr), so she has the genotype Er/_r. His father is healthy (ee) and has Rh+ (R_), so he has the genotype eR/e_. Tom must have inherited his E allele from his mother and his R allele  from his father, so he has the genotype eR/Er.

Terri's father is Rh+ (R_) and has elliptocytosis (E_), while Terri's mother is Rh- (rr) and is healthy (ee) with the genotype er/er. Terry could only receive the chromosome <em>er </em>from her mother, and because she is heterozygous for both genes the dominant alleles were both received from her father. Terri's genotype is ER/er.

The frequency of recombination is 4%, so 4% of the produced gametes will be recombinant. There are two possible recombinant gametes, so each will appear 2% of the times (a frequency of 0.02).

<u />

<u>Tom will produce the following gametes:</u>

  • eR, parental (0.48)
  • Er, parental (0.48)
  • er, recombinant (0.02)
  • ER (recombinant (0.02)

<u>Terri will produce the following gametes:</u>

  • ER, parental (0.48)
  • er, parental (0.48)
  • Er, recombinant (0.02)
  • eR, recombinant (0.02)

A child Rh- with elliptocytosis has the genotype rrE_. This can happen from the independent combination of the following gametes from Tom and Terri respectively:

  • Er (0.48) × er (0.48) = 0.2304 Er/er
  • Er (0.48) × Er (0.02) = 0.0096 Er/Er
  • er (0.02) × Er (0.02) = 0.0004 er/Er

And the total probability of having a rrE_ child will be 0.2304 + 0.0096 + 0.0004 = 0.2404
