In a particular species of mammal, black hair (B) is dominant to green hair (b), and red eyes (R) are dominant to white eyes (r)

. When a BbRr individual is mated with a bbrr individual, offspring are produced in a ratio of 5 black hair and red eyes:5 green hair and white eyes:1 black hair and white eyes:1 green hair and red eyes. Which of these explanations accounts for this ratio? 1. Green-haired individuals have a higher prenatal mortality than black-haired individuals.
2. The genes for hair color and the genes for eye color are carried on different chromosomes.
3. The expected results did not take genetic recombination into account.
4. The genes for both of these traits are carried on the autosomes.
5. The genes for hair color and eye color are linked.

<h2>The correct option is (5)</h2>

Explanation:

  • The genes for hair color and eye color are linked.
  • The linked genes are physically close to one another on the same chromosomes so they are most likely to be inherited together.
  • Linked genes cannot be found on a different chromosomes.
  • If genes are located closely,then their chances of recombination is more in comaprison to the genes which are located far on the same chromosomes.

What is true of a catalysis
Dafna1 [17]

Catalyst is a substance that speeds up a chemical reaction, but is not consumed by the reaction; hence a catalyst can be recovered chemically unchanged at the end of the reaction it has been used to speed up, or catalyze.

How are the 3 stages of cell division similar to how new animals are created?
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

Cell divison is defined as the process in which a parent cell split into two or more daughter cells. There are three stages of cell division that includes interphase, mitosis/meiosis and cytokinesis.

In the interphase the proteins, enzymes and cell organelles are formed and at the end of this phase single strand chromosome becomes a double strand carrying genes.

In the meiosis (in sexual reproduction) or mitosis (asexual reproduction) phase, divison of nucleus takes place. Meiosis gives rise to geneticaly different cells due to crossing over while mitosis leads to  identical cells .

Cytokinesis occurs cocurrently after meiosis or mitosis in which cytoplasm of a parental cell divides into two daughter cells each with identical chromatin.

Creation of new animals are also undergo these 3 stages of cell division that is interphase, meiosis (eukaryotes)/mitosis (prokaryotes) and cytokinesis. Majority of animals (eukaryotes) undergo meiosis phase because their mode of reproduction sexual and have genetic variation due to crossing over of chromosomes and produces 4 daughter cells at the end cell division.

Hence, the 3 stages of cell division is similar to craetion of new animals.
