The distribution of related animals and plants across the world

Biology

iragen [17]3 years ago

The distribution of related animals and plants across the world shows that those organisms have common ancestor.

There is a term in biology- the most recent common ancestor (MRCA) and it is the most recent individual from which all the organisms are directly descended. It is hard for scientist to identify the exact MRCA, but it is estimated the time at which the MRCA lived (3.5 to 3.8 billion years ago). It is called Last Universal Common Ancestor (LUCA).

Assuming dragon genetics follows the same rules as fruit flies, what ratio of genotypes would you expect if the genes were not l
andrew11 [14]

Assuming dragon genetics follow the same rules as fruit flies, we would get the same possible genotype for all 16 offspring provided that the genes are not linked.

Considering dragon genetics, flame eyes (F) are dominant to blue eyes (f) and burbling (B) is dominant to whistling (b).

Now, a dihybrid cross between two homozygous blue-eyed, whistling dragons will yield 16 offspring all with the same possible genotype .i.e. homozygous blue-eyed, whistling type.

Morgan through experiments on fruit flies observed that when the two genes in a dihybrid cross were situated on the same chromosome, the proportion of parental gene combination were much higher than the non-parental type.

He attributed this due to the physical association or linkage of the two genes and coined the term 'linkage' to describe the physical association of genes on a chromosome. The term 'recombination' is to describe the generation of non-parental gene combination.
