Answer:

The F2 generation can be explained because the alleles for flower colour and pollen shape are linked.

Explanation:

<em>When two alleles are linked on the same chromosome, there is a high tendency for the alleles to be inherited together. Consequently, the frequency of the alleles recombining in subsequent generations is low.</em>

This is what Bateson and Punnet observed. There exist a linkage between P and L alleles and also p and l alleles, thereby increasing their frequencies  of occurring together and decreasing the frequency of their recombination.

Thus, the F2 generation observed by Bateson and Punnet is due to linkage of alleles.

makkiz [27]

Answer:

The correct answer will be-

1. Nucleosomes

2. Chromatin

3. Sister chroamtid

4. Centromere

Explanation:

The DNA is a very long molecule which if has to be passed on to the daughter cell as it is will cause problems. So, to reduce problems a cell form tightly packed structure of DNA so that they can be passed easily to the daughter cell.

The packaging of DNA begins with the wrapping of the DNA around histone proteins which forms the 11 nm basic structural units called nucleosomes. The nucleosomes start condensing each other and form 30 nm structure chromatin fibres.

The chromatin fibres undergo replication during S phase which produces an exact copy of the chromatin called sister chromatids bound to each other at a central point called centromere which helps the separation of the chromatids during M phase.
