How do mutagens affect chromosomes? AThey change the chemical composition of DNA, which can affect the structure or number of ch

romosomes. They attack the inner part of the chromosome, changing the sequence of DNA in the centromere of the chromosome. They alter the size of the chromosome, which affects the way a chromosome passes genetic traits from parents to offspring.

Which of Thomas hunt morgans hypotheses was valid
Simora [160]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

white eyes are homozygous recessive

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • <em><u>Thomas Hunt Morgan work with the fruit fly showed that genes are linked in a series on chromosomes and are responsible for identifiable, hereditary traits. </u></em>He was the first to identify that genes are linked to the same chromosome.
  • <em><u>According to his hypothesis he stated that genes that are linked are arranged linearly on a chromosome, while those genes with low combination frequencies must be closer together and thus difficult to separate</u></em>.
  • When a gene contains two similar alleles that is, either two dominant alleles or two recessive alleles then it is called homozygous dominant and homozygous recessive respectively. White eyes of a fruit fly is an example of homozygous recessive

Is a post oak tree is a autotrophic or heterotrophic
Tcecarenko [31]
All plants are autotrophic.

Autotrophic means he doesn't need another living thing to live(for eating) but that he makes his own food (photosynthesis). (auto means itself).

Heterotrophic means he needs others to keep on living. Like animals. All animals need to eat and can't make their own food with only sunlight, CO2 and water. They need food, which may be plants or other animals. That depends on the animal.

Albinism is inherited as autosomal recessive trait. The frequency of the disease in the population equals to 1:20 000. Calculate
prisoha [69]

Answer:

0.0139- frequency of heterozygotes in the population

Explanation:

Let q to the power of 2 represents the frequency of the homozygous recessive (aa) = 1/20000 = 0.00005

This, q = √q^2 = √0.00005 = 0.007

Since p + q = 1

p = 1 - 0.007 = 0.993

Using the formula: p^2 + 2pq + q^2

Where 2pq represents the frequency of the heterozygotes, thing we have

2 x 0.007 x 0.993

= 0.0139
