In Drosophila, singed bristles [sn] and cut wings [ct] are both caused by recessive X-linked alleles. The wild type alleles [sn+

and ct+] are responsible fro straight bristles and intact wings, respectively. A female homozygous for sn and ct+ is crossed to a sn+ ct male. The F1 flies are interbred. The F2 males are distributed as follows:
sn ct 13

sn ct+ 36

sn+ ct 39

sn+ ct+ 12


What is the map distance bwteen sn and ct?

Answer:

The map distance between sn and ct is = 25 m.u or map unit.

Explanation:

Given, sn ct+  ×  sn+ ct

In F1 generation the progenies were interbred.

In F2 generation,

sn ct = 13  (recombinant)

sn ct+ = 36  (parental)

sn+ ct = 39  (parental)

sn+ ct+ = 12 (recombinant)

<em>Linkage Map distance = (no. of Recombinant progeny/total progeny)   </em>

<em>                                                                                                                      × 100                              </em>

<em>Recombination frequency = (no. of Recombinant progeny/total progeny)                               </em>

<em>                                                                                                                     × 100</em>

                                            = ( 13+ 12) /100 × 100 m.u

                                             = 25/100  × 100

                                              = 25 %                                      

∴ The distance between sn and ct  = 25 m.u or map unit

∴  Linkage happened  between sn and ct as the map distance is much less than 50

Why is a viruses refered to as a particles rather than cells
noname [10]
Viruses are not alive. Although they sort of “hack” a host’s cells and reproduce, they do not breathe or move on their own. A virus will sit on a counter forever if it’s untouched. Viruses are spread by physical contact, not because they can move around on their own.
Although viruses can attack and hack, and use your cells to reproduce, they are programmed to do so.
Cells are very much alive, while viruses are not.

sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

ANSWER : a wide range of environmental conditions that shapes communities.

Explanation:

Climate can easily be described as the average weather which occurs in a place over a long period of time probably over many years. The ecosystems and habitats around the earth are shaped due to climate as particular climate can be best for the living condition of one organism but be devastating for the living of another organism. The effect of climate on living communities is such devastating that a change in climate can cause the extinction of a particular kind of species. Climate shall not be confused with weather which is day to day temperature change.
