How can independent assortment help explain genetic diversity in humans?

Biology
1 answer:
NikAS [45]4 years ago
3 0

Independent assortment allows parent gametes to create a unique combination of characters in the offspring and recombine with another set of genes. If independent assortment does not occur, most likely the offsprings will inherit the characteristics of the parent gametes. They will remain as is.

The resilience of bone is thought to come from which of the following?amount of mineral salt and protein in the bonepresence of
LenKa [72]
<h2>Resilience of bone</h2>

Explanation:

The resilience of bone comes from sacrificial bonds in or between collagen molecules

  • Three major functions of bones includes

Providing structural support to the body

Providing protection to vital organs

Providing an environment for marrow (where blood cells are produced)

  • There are two types of tissues which bones are composed of:

A hard outer layer called cortical bone which is strong, compact,dense and tough

A spongy inner layer called trabecular bone,this network of trabeculae is lighter and less dense than compact bone as a storage area for minerals (such as calcium)

  • Bone is also consists of:

Bone forming cells (osteoblasts and osteocytes)

Bone resorbing cells (osteoclasts)

Non mineral matrix of collagen and noncollagenous proteins (osteoid)

Inorganic mineral salts deposited within the matrix

  • Bone ends up being a good example of resilience because it is not static like it is perceived to be

The phenotype of vestigial (short) wings (vg) in Drosophila melanogaster is caused by a recessive mutant gene that independently
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

It is expected to obtain 576 individuals with normal wings and body with normal hair, 192 with normal wings and hairy body, 192 with vestigial wings and body with normal hair, and 64 with vestigial wings and hairy body.

Explanation:

Since only the wild-type of the offspring cross each other and since the parents have antagonistic phenotypic characters for each gene, all the progeny produced in the F1 is heterozygous with VgvgHh genotype, where

Vg: Normal wings.

eg: Vestigial wings.

H: Body with normal hair.

h: Hairy body.

Once F1 reproduces with each other, the Mendelian proportions 9/16, 3/16, 3/16, 1/16 expected in the F2 generation are produced.

Since in total there were 1024 individuals in the offspring, this amount is multiplied by the expected proportions, giving rise to the mentioned result.
