Answer: Hardness

Igneous rock derives it's name from the Latin word ignis which means fire. It is formed when the magma after volcanic eruption gets cool and solidified either on the surface of earth crust or inside the earth crust. These rocks are characterized by their hardness. These rocks undergoes no chemical weathering but exhibit very low mechanical or physical weathering may occur. Therefore, hardness is the property which can be used to identify the origin of an igneous rock.

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

1.31 cM

Explanation:

Total offspring = 2205

Since two genes are involved, F1 progeny should have four types of combination. Out of them two are 17 and 12 which definitely means they are in lesser number. Since recombinants are always less than parental progeny in linkage, the given two types are recombinants.

Recombination frequency = (Number of recombinants / Total progeny) * 100

= [ ( 17 + 12 ) / 2205 ] * 100

= ( 29 / 2205 ) * 100

= 1.31 %

Map distance = Recombination frequency

Hence, distance between two genes = 1.31 cM
