Answer: The "distance" between two linked gene pairs can be expressed as a percentage. The percentage of recombinant progeny produced in a cross is called THE RECOMBINATION (RECOMBINANT) FREQUENCY.

Explanation: The recombinant frequency is expressed as:

(Number of recombinant progeny ÷ total number of progeny) x 100

In percentage ranging from 1 - 49%, the genes are said to be linked. If it is 50% and above, the genes are not linked.

Reabsorption of filtered glucose from the filtrate into the cells of the proximal tubule is by: Reabsorption of filtered glucose
marysya [2.9K]

Answer: A(secondary active transport)

Explanation:

Secondary active transport, is transport of molecules across the cell membrane which utilizes energy created by co-transporter pumping of ions across the membrane in an electrochemical gradient.

The reabsorption of glucose from the proximal tubule occurs via secondary active transport.

The reabsorbption of glucose does not depend the concentration gradient but on the reabsorption of sodium a co-transporter.

ATP is used in the movements of Na+/K+. Energy is also produced from sodium electrochemical gradient concentration and it is enough energy to transport glucose across the membrane into the epithelial cells.

A large forested area is fragmented into small forest tracts separated by agricultural areas. This change will most likely lead
shtirl [24]

Answer:

Can lead to a drastic change, resulting in a decrease in the gene flow among the species of the original forest before fragmentation.

Explanation:

A forest that is divided into small pieces or areas for agricultural purposes will definitely drive away the organisms originally residing in the forest, thereby reducing the rate of mating, and subsequently decreasing the gene flow.

Agricultural areas are areas of land which are devoted to agriculture. That is, for cultivation of crops and rearing of livestock, most especially for commercial purposes.

Blood is supplied to the muscular wall of the left atrium by the
Bond [772]

Blood is supplied to the muscular wall of the left atrium by the left coronary artery

Blood is considered a connective tissue that remains flowing continuously in the body and carries oxygen, nutrients, and hormones from one place to another place in the body.

It is pumped into the body equally through the heart which consists of four chambers and several valves and arteries which work in a coordinated manner to collect deoxygenated blood collected from the body and replace oxygen in it and pump it into the other parts of the body.  

The left coronary artery (LCA), also known as the left main coronary artery (LMCA) arises from the aorta above the left cusp of the aortic valve and transports the blood to the left side of the heart muscle.
