Could a particular form of life survive on the Martian surface
coldgirl [10]
Gizmono
NASA reignited our hopes of finding alien life when it announced the first direct evidence of liquid water on Mars. But before we start indulging in fantasies of space crabs and reptilian beings, we ought to remember that Mars is a frigid world with a thin atmosphere. And that raises an obvious question: What sorts of life forms could actually live there?

Any life on Mars today is almost certainly microbial, but beyond that, we can’t be sure of anything until we actually dig it up and study it. Still, we can make some educated guesses about the nature of Martian life, by taking a deep dive into some of the weirdest biology on planet

marshall27 [118]
An animal without a backbone is known as an invertebrate. A vertebrate is n animal that has a spine. And I am pretty sure polyp and hermaphrodite have really nothing to do with the backbone. Hope this helped!

Identify three limiting factors that can prevent a population from increasing. Explain how each factor limits a population's siz
morpeh [17]

Answer:

natural disasters,emigration and scarcity of food

Explanation: natural disasters: this affect population where by organisms leave there area or habitat for another area due to unfavorable conditions eg. flood, bush fire, storms, earthquake etc. and can also lead to death.

Emigration:this is when organisms leave an area for another either in search of food, breeding purpose this reduses population where by organisms may never return.

scarcity of food:this occur when there is insufficiency or no food in an area which makes organisms leave their habitat for another in search of food and might even lead to death.

A dihybrid cross produces 30 recombinant offspring out of a total of 1,000 offspring. What is the recombination frequency of the
uranmaximum [27]

The recombination frequency of the two gene pairs is 3%.

The number of recombinant offspring(r.o.) / total number of offspring x 100% = recombination frequency(θ):

r.o./total x 100% = θ

30/100 x 100% = 3%

Recombinant offspring are children that have a different allele combination to their parents.

For example, say a mother has a haploid cell with the alleles AB and the father has a haploid cell with the alleles ab. These combine to make a diploid cell with the sequence Aa+Bb.

Formation of Recombinant Offspring :

Recombination can happen in two different ways; independent assortment and crossing over.

  • Independent assortment is when the maternal and parental DNA are mixed during meiosis, creating a new gene sequence.
  • Crossing over happens during the first stage of meiosis when the two homologous chromosomes are paired and a portion breaks off on the same loci then reconnects to a different end. Crossing over can only happen when there isn't a physical linkage of the parental alleles.

Recombination frequency (θ) is the frequency with which a single chromosomal crossover will take place between two genes during meiosis. A centimorgan (cM) is a unit that describes a recombination frequency of 1%. In this way we can measure the genetic distance between two loci, based upon their recombination frequency. This is a good estimate of the real distance. Double crossovers would turn into no recombination. In this case we cannot tell if crossovers took place. If the loci we're analysing are very close (less than 7 cM) a double crossover is very unlikely. When distances become higher, the likelihood of a double crossover increases. As the likelihood of a double crossover increases we systematically underestimate the genetic distance between two loci.

When two genes are close together on the same chromosome, they do not assort independently and are said to be linked. Whereas genes located on different chromosomes assort independently and have a recombination frequency of 50%, linked genes have a recombination frequency that is less than 50%.
