It is true that by calculating genetic distance, and using rate of change from molecular clock, researchers can estimate when two lineages diverged.

 

To add, genetic distance<span> is the term used to describe the number of differences or mutations between two sets of Y-chromosome DNA or mitochondrial DNA test results. Having zero genetic distance equates to having an exact match and that there’s no differences in the two results presented. A lot of people mistakenly assume that genetic distance is the number of generations to a common ancestor, but that is NOT AT ALL what genetic distance means. Genetic distance can also be identified by how many a particular match’s mutation difference to the participant.</span>

Which of the following is not a potential concern associated with the use of biotechnology?
Alik [6]
<span>The option which is not a potential concern associated with the use of biotechnology is the production yields of GM foods, whereas the other options are quite dangerous when you think about them. Genetic ownership means that somebody could steal your genes and use them for cloning, which is another option here. Trainsgenic foods also have to be kept safe, so as to stop someone from messing with them. The production yields of GM foods is not the problem, the problem is whether that food is healthy or not.</span>

You have a plant with yellow seeds, which express a dominant phenotype. How would you determine the plant's genotype? Conduct a
Archy [21]
The answer is <span>Conduct a test cross with a purebred recessive plant. 

</span>

Test cross is the cross between an organism with unknown dominant genotype and an organism with known recessive genotype.

<span>Since dominant trait results from a dominant allele, the test cross can determine if an unknown genotype is heterozygous and homozygous dominant. </span>

If A is dominant allele, and a is recessive allele, then AA is dominant homozygote, Aa is a heterozygote, and aa is recessive homozygote.

<span>According to the Punnett square, if all of the offspring are heterozygote (Aa), then unknown genotype is dominant homozygous (AA). If half of the offspring are the heterozygote, and the other half are recessive homozygote, then the unknown genotype is heterozygote (Aa).</span>
