A student in a biology class crossed a male Drosophila melanogaster having a gray body and long wings with a female D. melanogas

ter having a black body and apterous wings. The following distribution of traits was observed in the offspring.
Phenotype Number of Offspring

Gray body, long wings 42
Gray body, apterous wings 9
Black body, apterous wings 41
Black body, Iong wings 8
Which of the following is supported by the data?

A) The alleles for gray body and long wings are dominant.
B) The alleles for gray body and long wings are recessive.
C) Genes for the two traits are located on two different chromosomes, and independent assortment occurred
D) Genes for the two traits are located close together on the same chromosome, and crossing over occurred between the two gene loci.

Answer:

D) Genes for the two traits are located close together on the same chromosome, and crossing over occurred between the two gene loci.

Explanation:

According to the data shown above, we can see that at the crossing of the two flies the genes for the two characteristics are located close to each other on the same chromosome, and the crossing occurred between the two genetic loci.

As you may already know, a chromosome is a molecule formed by the correlation between DNA and proteins that keep the DNA compacted and prevent it from spreading.

Genetic loci, on the other hand, are regions on chromosomes where a specific gene for a specific trait is located.

Why does the reduction of the dye DCPIP work best using the chloroplasts whose outer envelopes have been damaged during preparat
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

NADP is the cofactors in photosynthesis which loses electrons,becomes reduced(NADPH) in photosynthesis. It transfer  electrons  in reduced form(NADPH) into the stroma of the chloroplast. The H is splits into e- and H+

These electrons for the ETC chains, generates the PMF for pumping H+ as protrons into the thylakoid  intramembranes.

Outer membrane covers  the intramembrane space, between these two membranes layers. The protons in the intramembrane space generate the electrochemical gradient for the supply of  the energy used by ATPase synthase for ATP synthesis from phosphorylation with ADP.

The chloroplast is made up of both the outer and inner membrane,separated by the intramembrane space. The walls of the intramembrane space is guided by the outer envelope. 

Therefore with the outer envelope removed, the intramembrane is exposed,more protons(H+) are released, but can not be held in the outer envelope to form electrochemical gradients,beacause the intramembrane space is now permable.

Thus   the rate of reduction of DCPIP is faster.The  color changes to colorless increases when reduced , from blue color.
