Answer:

680 recombinant progeny

Explanation:

Since the two genes are 68 map units apart on the same chromosome, it simply means that the frequency of recombination is 60 percent. Hence, recombinant offspring will be 60 percent of the total number of offspring produced.

Since the total number of progeny is 1000,

Number of recombinant progeny = 68/100 x 1000

                    = 680 progeny.

680 recombinant progeny are expected to be observed.

Glucose is a large molecule that cannot penetrate the phospholipid bilayer of cells. Instead, glucose enters most cells through
bagirrra123 [75]


The term is Facilitated diffusion.

Facilitated diffusion is a transport mechanism in which carrier proteins shuttle molecules across the cell membrane without using the cell's energy, and because it does not use the cell's energy, it is a passive transport.

The energy is provided by the concentration gradient, which means that molecules are transported from higher  to lower concentrations, into or out of the cell.

The carrier proteins of the GLUT family are responsible for transporting glucose. They bind to glucose , which causes them to change shape to fit in the membrane passage then they translocate the glucose molecule from one side of the membrane to the other.

Red blood cells use facilitated diffusion to absorb glucose.

What is the evolution of sex?
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer: Sex evolved as an extremely efficient mechanism for producing variation, and this had the major advantage of enabling organisms to adapt to changing environments. Sex did, however, come with a cost. In reproducing asexually, no time nor energy needs to be expended in choosing a mate.
