4 0

Answer:

Genome mapping is used to identify and record the location of genes and the distances between genes on a chromosome. Genome mapping provided a critical starting point for the Human Genome Project. Sequenced DNA fragments can be aligned to the genome map to aid with the assembly of the genome.

By inducing mutations, scientists have been able to increase genetic variation, which breeders depend on to produce crops with desirable traits, such as resistance to diseases and insects. ... Mutations can be induced in a variety of ways, such as by exposure to ultraviolet or ionizing radiation or chemical mutagens.

Why are three-dimensional models useful for understanding the lunar phases?
Juli2301 [7.4K]
New moon, quarter moon, full moon are what we call the lunar phases. These are consequences of the motions of the Sun, Earth and moon. Three dimensional models are useful because the face of the moon that catches the light of the Sun depending on their position at any given time could be depicted well. Circular models would be the best visuals for the lunar phases.
