In the snail cepaea nemoralis, an autosomal allele causing a banded shell, u, is recessive to the allele for an unbanded shell,
Alex Ar [27]
There will be no recombinant progeny in absolute linkage. The F1 inherted banded and yellow alleles (BBCY) together on one chromosome from the banded yellow parent and unbanded and brown allels (BOCBw) together on the homologous chromosome from the unbanded parent. All the F1 gametes will contain only these two allelic combinations, in equal proportions if there is no recombination. F2 cross progeny will have 1/2 banded, that is yellow and 1/2 unbanded brown.

Which of the following correctly identifies the types of cell division describe in rows x and y
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

B. Row x describes meiosis and row y describes mitosis

Explanation:

  • <em><u>Mitosis is the process in which a cell divides to yield two daughter cells with same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. </u></em>The process takes place in the somatic cells or the body cells. For example, a cell with 14 chromosomes divides to produce two cells with 14 chromosomes.
  • <em><u>Meiosis on the other hand is the process in which a cell divides into four daughter cells that have half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.</u></em> The process takes place in the germ line cells where gametes are produced. For example a cell undergoes meiotic division to produce four cells each with 7 chromosomes.
