Answer:

  • J K / j k = 20%
  • j k / j k = 20%
  • J k / j k = 30%
  • j K / j k = 30%                

Explanation:

To calculate the recombination frequency, we have to know that 1% of recombinations = 1 map unit = 1cm. And that the maximum recombination frequency is always 50%.

The map unit is the distance between the pair of genes for which every 100 meiotic products, one of them results in a recombinant one.

So, en the exposed example:

  • J and K are autosomal genes
  • J and K are separated by 60 M.U.
  • 60 M.U. means that there is 60% of recombination.

Cross)             J K / j k                    x                  j k / j k

Gametes) JK  Parental                                     jk, jk, jk, jk

                jk   Parental                                  

                Jk   Recombinant                          

                 jK   Recombinant

One map unit equals 1% of recombination frequency. This means that every 100 meiotic products, one of them is a recombinant one.

1 M.U. -------------- 1% recombination

60 M.U. ------------ 60% recombination

                              30% Jk  +  30% jK

100 M.U. - 60 M.U. = 40 M.U.

40M.U.--------------40 % Parental (Not recombinant)

                            20% JK   +   20% jk

Punnet Square)           JK       jk      Jk      jK

                          jk     JK/jk   jk/jk   Jk/jk   jK/jk

J K / j k = 20%

j k / j k = 20%

J k / j k = 30%

j K / j k = 30%

Water's ability to dissolve a wide variety of molecules is important, but more important is the hydrophobic effect, which drives
NeX [460]

Answer and explanation;

The hydrophobic effect is the observed tendency of non-polar substances to aggregate in an aqueous solution and exclude water molecules. Hydrophobic interaction is mostly an entropic effect originating from the disruption of highly dynamic hydrogen bonds between molecules of liquid water by the non-polar solute.

Introduction of such a non-hydrogen bonding surface into water causes disruption of the hydrogen bonding network between water molecules.

Water dissolves molecules (proteins and nucleic acids) that display on their solvent-accessible surfaces groups that can h-bond [hydroxyl, carbonyl, ester groups; they're polar uncharged...also charged groups; protonated amines, carboxylates and phosphate ethers.

Molecules with internal h-bonds dissolve in water, some/all internal h-bonds may be in dynamic exchange with h-bonds in water .

Polar nature of water contributes to ability to dissolve non-ionic polar organic molecules, such as phenols, esters, amides; have large dipole moments and interaction with water dipole promotes solubility in water.
