Answer:

G and K

Explanation:

Crossing-over is a genetic phenomenon that occurs in meiosis, specifically, Prophase I. It is when chromosomal segment (genes) are exchanged between non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes. Crossing-over occurs only to genes that are UNLINKED i.e. genes located on different chromosomes or far apart on the same chromosome.

This unlinked genes are said to have the highest RECOMBINATION FREQUENCY. Crossing-over allows genes on the same chromosome but far apart from each other, assort independently, which allows alleles to be recombined on the same chromosome. This phenomenon does not occur to genes that are close on the same chromosome as they will be inherited together as a unit.

In this case, G and K are the farthest apart, hence, they will have the highest RECOMBINATION FREQUENCY i.e. the likelihood for homologous crossing-over to take place during meiosis.

Where are the sensory neurons located in the reflex arc?
Wewaii [24]
<span>Most reflex arcs involve only three neurons. The stimulus, such as a needle stick, stimulates the pain receptors of the skin, which initiate an impulse in a sensory neuron. This travels to the spinal cord where it passes, by means of a synapse, to a connecting neuron called the relay neuron situated in the spinal cord.</span>

How does this sentence violate the principles of objectivity in writing a summary?
Mnenie [13.5K]
You didn't provide the sentence that is relevant in this case, however, generally if you would like to be objective in a sentence, you shouldn't include possible issues such as subjective thoughts, judgments, and similar things which have a negative impact on objectivity (and in reality destroy any remaining objectivity in a sentence).

ryzh [129]
<h2>Answer is option "A"</h2>

Explanation:

  • The concept of actor-observer bias states that the causes of behaviors and events in our lives are motivated by attribution. Attribution is an inference that we make about our behaviors and the behaviors of others. The attributions we make depend directly on whether we are the actor or the observer.
  • The actor-observer difference inclination will be progressively articulated in circumstances where the results are negative. For instance, in a circumstance where an individual encounters something negative, the individual will regularly accuse the circumstance or conditions. When something antagonistic happens to someone else, individuals will frequently censure the person for their own decisions, practices, and activities.
  • Hence, the right answer is option A "actor-observer perspective".
