Answer:
Index fossils
Explanation:
The index fossils are the fossils that come in very handy for the geologists when it comes to identifying or dating rock samples or other fossils. The reason for this is that the index fossils have already been dated. They are fossils that are very commonly found, wide dispersed, are easy to be identified, and are limited to only a certain geological period. These characteristics make them an excellent indicator for the dating of the rock layers in which they are found, or the fossils found in the same layers with them, without conducting further examinations.
Answer:
2% of the progeny will be double crossovers for the trihybrid test cross
Explanation:
By knowing the positions of genes, we can estimate the distances in MU between them per region.
- Genes A and B are 10 map units apart (Region I)
- Genes B and C are 20 map units apart (Region II)
- Genes A and C are 30 map units apart
----A-------10MU--------B-------------20MU-------------C---
Region I Region II
We can estimate the recombination frequencies by dividing each distance by 100.
• recombination frequency of A-B region = 10MU / 100 = 0.10
• recombination frequency of B-C region = 20MU / 100 = 0.20
Now that we know the recombination frequencies in each region, we can calculate the expected double recombinant frequency, EDRF, like this:
EDRF = recombination frequency in region I x recombination frequency in region II.
EDRF = 0.10 x 0.20 = 0.02
2% of the progeny will be double crossovers for the trihybrid test cross
