You are engaged in a project to breed new color variants in snakes. A certain chromosome carries three genes that all affect pig

mentation. Two of the genes, A and B are near each other on the chromosome, but gene C is further away. You are hoping to maintain the versions of the three genes from the maternal chromosomes in some of the grandchildren. What would you predict for the behavior of these genes during crossover in meiosis?
A. All three genes are equally likely to be separated by a crossover event, since these are randomly distributed.
B. The maternal chromosome will be transmitted as it is to half of the progeny.
C. The maternal chromosome will be transmitted as it is to all of the progeny.
D. Genes A and B are likely to stay together, but they are more likely to become separated from gene C since a crossover is more likely to occur in the longer space between them.

Answer:

D. Genes A and B are likely to stay together, but they are more likely to become separated from gene C since a crossover is more likely to occur in the longer space between them.

Explanation:

Cross over between homologous chromosomes occurs during meiosis I. A synapsis is formed and non sister chromatids exchange genetic material between each other. If gene A and gene B are close to each other on a chromosome, they most likely will show linkage. During cross over these genes will have more probability to get inherited together from the parent and hence offspring with parental combination will be more in number. Since gene C is farther away from the two genes, it will show normal cross over and recombination. Offspring produced will have almost equal parental and new combination.

Explain how precipitation affects which plants grow in a area?​
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

Percipitation helps plant growth because when the water falls, the plants suck the water up through the roots when the water seeps through the dirt that the plant is in, once the water is in the plant, it benefits the plant because without it, the plant will shrivil up and die

Hope this helps ;)

Proteins are one of the three macronutrients found in the diet and important structural molecule organisms. Proteins help provid
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

The human body is able to synthesize them:  proteins, fats

Contains nitrogen in the amine group : proteins

Made according to instructions from DNA: proteins

Explanation:

The cells of the human body synthesize proteins from the transcription and translation processes.

Fats and carbohidrates are ingested in the diet and metabolized by the body. However some types of fat such as cholesterol is synthesized by the human body. Same as phospholipids that are part of the membranes.

Proteins are formed by hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen and carbon. Amino acids are characterized  for owning a carboxyl group (- COOH) and an amino group (-NH2)

(oxygen, electron transport chain, chemiosmosis, NADPH)
Vaselesa [24]

Hai there :3 I'm planning to study chemical engineering.

Question related to Biochemistry (Photosynthesis & Cellular Respiration)

1. Chemiosmosis.  In the process of chemiosmosis, specific enzymes (such as ATP synthase) create ATP. Hydrogen ions go from a higher proton concentration to a lower one, which is why it's called chemio"osmosis"

2. Electron Transport Chain (ETC). The name says it all. Simply explained, electrons are transported and transferred in the mitochondrial membrane.

3. Oxygen. O2, the diatomic molecule, is essential in respiration. In the final stage of respiration, at the near end of the electron transport chain, oxygen accepts protons to become water. Cells use O2 during oxidative phosphorylation.

4. NADPH. I remember learning what this acronym means by heart. Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Phosphate Hydrogen. NADPH is essential in photosynthesis as a typical coenzyme in the reduction of chemical reactions.
