Answer;

This is because the nervous system would no longer be linked to the endocrine system.


The reason as to why the adrenal and thyroid glands atrophy if the pituitary glands cease to function is because the nervous system would no longer be linked to the endocrine system.


Thyrotrophic and adrenocorticotrophic hormones from the anterior pituitary keep the adrenal and thyroid glands in action. If pituitary stops secreting them, it is obvious that adrenal and thyroid would be affected.

mina [271]

Answer:

a) Genes b and c are farthest apart.

Explanation:

Transformation occurs when a competent bacteria cell takes up genetic material from the environment. Usually a donor cell donates its gene fragment  which is then incorporated into the chromosome or plasmid of recipient bacterial cell.

Cotransformation occurs when two genes are taken up together by the recipient. The closer the genes lie to each other, more are the chances of them being taken up together. Contransformation frequency will be higher if two genes are close to each other. Here, cotransformation frequencies between three genes are given. Amongst them, the lowest frequency is 0.0064% which is present between gene b and c. Hence, gene b and c are the farthest apart.
