How would being able to bring water into the gills when the mouth is closed benefit a bottom-dwelling shark or ray?

Biology

trapecia [35]3 years ago

Answer:

The ability to bring water into the gills when the mouth is closed would benefit a bottom dwelling shark or ray, because it would allow them to be more discreet when in the process of catching prey and they would be able to stop swimming. Most sharks have to continuously swim or else they would sink, while being able to bring water into the gills when the mouth is closed would highly benefit them and allow them to stop swimming for a moment.

Explanation:

I am not 100% sure this is the correct answer, but I am currently doing a lab on this, so I am using the knowledge I previously had and online resources. I am pretty confident though.

In a two-point linkage analysis, genes a and b have been found to be 26 m.u. apart on the same chromosome. A third gene, c, has
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

Because the two-point analysis underestimates the actual distance between A and B for not taking into consideration all the possible crossing-overs. The most accurate result is the one thrown by the three-point analysis.

Explanation:

When calculating genetic distances, we might notice a difference when using a two-point analysis and when making a three-point analysis. Their results are different. This difference is because distances between genes are not completely additive. They might vary. We can notice this difference in the exposed example, in which the map distance between <em>A and B when using a two-point analysis equals 26 map units</em>. However, <em>when using a three-point analysis, it equals 33 map units</em>. The <em>addition of distances from A to C and from C to B is 33 and not 26</em>.  

Calculating the recombination frequency between the two genes located in the extremes and far apart from each other<u> underestimate </u>the actual genetic distances between them, because there might occur other crossing-overs that were not detected. So, when calculating the genetic distance from A to B, we probably will not consider the occurrence of a double recombinant between them, and we might sub-estimate the actual distance. In between A and B many simple and double-crossing over might occur, and might not be detected by the two-point analysis.

The relationship between the actual map distance (number of crossing overs) and the recombination frequency between two loci is not lineal. The farther apart the two genes are, the worse is the distance estimation.

 The most accurate analysis is the three-point one that is based on the addition of distances between every two genes.
