2. Assume that crossing over does not occur in the region of each chromosome that is associated with the centromere. You have 46

centromeric regions in each cell, 23 that are copies of the DNA in your mother’s egg and 23 that are copies of the DNA father’s sperm. Show your work for A,B,C a. For any given gamete, what is the probability that all the centromeric regions (chromosomes) will be copies of the same ones that you received from your mother? b. It has been estimated that the average person is heterozygous for at least 2,000 protein forming genes. How many different kinds of gametes is it theoretically possible for each person to produce? c. Considering the maternal and paternal origin of the centromeric regions alone, how many different kinds of gametes can you produce?

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

A. centromeric regions from mother in one cell: 23

total number of centromeric regions in one cell: 46

for every centromeric region that is inherited by the gamete, there is a 0.5 probability that it is from the mother. Hence, if all are from the mother:

0.5 ^ 23 = 1.19 x 10^(-7)

B. Heterozygous for 2000 genes means 4000 possible alleles.

2 ^ 4000 = 1.3 x 10^(1204)

C. 2 ^ 46 = 7.03 x 10^(13)

Question 2

Answer:

C) Increases its boiling point

Explanation:

Adding more solute to a solvent increases its boiling point! This is a phenomenon described by the colligative properties. When we add a solvent to a solute, the boiling point increases.

Put in vapor pressure terms, a liquid boils at the temperature when its vapor pressure equals the surrounding pressure. For the solvent, the presence of the solute decreases its vapor pressure by dilution. Thus, a higher temperature is needed for the vapor pressure to reach the surrounding pressure, and the boiling point is elevated.

Which non-renewable source of energy does the world use the most?
denis23 [38]

Answer:

Renewable energy comes from sources that will never deplete, no matter how much is used. An example of this is wind energy, which had been growing in popularity in countries like India and Germany. Nonrenewable energy makes up 85% the energy used on earth—the most popular form of energy being oil.

Stereotypies in pregnant sows: indications of influence of the housing system on the patters expressed by the animals
Sloan [31]

Pregnant sows kept in various housing systems on commercial farms were found to exhibit stereotypy patterns. Stalls vs. tethers for Large White (124 and 68 sows, respectively) and stalls vs. group-housed for Large White/Landrace crosses (81 and 71 sows, respectively) for two farms in each case were compared among females of the same genotype.

<h3>What is stereotypies behavior ?</h3>

Stereotypies are routine actions or noises. Simple gestures like body rocking, head nodding, and finger tapping can be used, as well as more complicated ones like flapping arms and hands, waving, or pacing.

  • Hand flapping, body swaying, toe walking, spinning items, sniffing, instantaneous and delayed echolalia, and running things across one's peripheral vision are typical examples of stereotypy (Schreibman, Heyser, & Stahmer, 1999).
