What is an adaptive advantage of recombination between linked genes?

Biology
1 answer:
Georgia [21]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

New allele combinations are acted upon by natural selection.

Explanation:

Recombination may be defined as the process of the exchange of the genetic material between the homologous chromosomes of the non sister chromatid. The combined trait will be visible in the upcoming generation.  

The recombination allows the generation of the new genes in the population. These new genes if beneficial for the population will be pass to the next generations. The new allele will be favored by the natural selection and increases the chance of survival of the population.

Thus, the correct answer is new allele combinations are acted upon by natural selection.

Can ground tissue do photosynthesis
Damm [24]

The major cells of the ground tissue are parenchyma cells, which function in photosynthesis and nutrient storage. They have thin walls, many chloroplasts, and large central vacuoles, and they form the mass of most leaves, stems, and roots. Another cell of the ground substance is the sclerenchyma cell.

A field of corn contains a certain amount of food energy. Compare the following situations and then answer the questions. Use th
trasher [3.6K]

Before assessing the two given cases, an assumption needs to be made about the digestion of the two types of food items, corn and beef. Let us assume that both get digested by expending same amount of energy by the human body. Let the amount of energy at producer level be an arbitrary X.

Case 1: Corn to human:

Since corn is at the producer level, it will have X amount of energy. The transfer of energy from corn to human will take place with a loss of 90% energy at the producer level. Hence the humans will receive 10% of X amount of energy.

Case 2: Corn to cow to human:

Since corn has X amount of energy, only 10% will pass to the next level, i.e. cow. So cow has 10% of X. Cow transfers only 10% of the energy that it has. Hence humans receive only 10% of 10% of X amount of energy.

It can be seen that humans receive more energy in case 1 than case 2. Hence we can say that it is more efficient for humans to feed on corn.

What is the energy autotrophs use to make their own food?
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]
<span>Most autotrophs use a process called photosynthesis to make their food. In photosynthesis, autotrophs use energy from the sun to convert water from the soil and carbon dioxide from the air into a nutrient called glucose. Glucose is a type of sugar. The glucose gives plants energy.</span>
