How many mongo seed are equal to 3.50 moles of mongo seeds?​
frozen [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is - 2.107 x 10^24 mango seeds.

Explanation:

Given:-

number of moles of mango seeds = 3.50 mol

Solution:-

1 mol of mango seeds = 6.02 x 10^23 mango seeds

6.02 x 10^23 is Avagadro numbers

1 mole is the number of particles contained in a substance . The number of moles can also be calculated by dividing the mass by the molar mass of the element or molecule of the substance  with the Avogadro's number.

Therefore,

3.50 mol of mango seeds = 3.50 x 6.02 x 10^23 mango seeds

3.50 mol of mango seeds = 21.07 x 10^23 mango seeds

3.50 mol of mango seeds = 2.107 x 10^24 mango seeds

According to scientific thought, when does one species of organisms become two species?
alexandr402 [8]
It happens when the two groups become sufficiently different and the two can no longer interbreed. A known example of speciation is the London underground mosquito where it formed a new species within the existing genus. There are examples in micro-evolution but not in macro-evolution.

Factors derived from factor analysis may themselves be interrelated. When such factors are themselves factor analyzed, the resul

Resulting factors are called Second-order factors

<h3>What is factor analysis?</h3>
  • Factor analysis is a statistical approach for describing variability in seen, correlated variables in terms of a possibly smaller number of unobserved variables known as factors.
  • It is possible, for example, that fluctuations in six known variables mostly reflect variations in two unseen (underlying) variables.
  • Factor analysis looks for such joint fluctuations in response to latent variables that are not noticed.
  • Factor analysis may be regarded of as a specific form of errors-in-variables models since the observed variables are described as linear combinations of the possible factors plus "error" terms.
  • It may help to deal with data sets where there are large numbers of observed variables that are thought to reflect a smaller number of underlying/latent variables.
  • It is one of the most commonly used inter-dependency techniques and is used when the relevant set of variables shows a systematic inter-dependence and the objective is to find out the latent factors that create a commonality.

In Drosophila melanogaster, vestigial wings (vg) is recessive to normal wings (vg+), black body (b) is recessive to gray body (b
yan [13]

Correct progeny phenotype:

  • 1779 vestigial wings, black body and purple eyes, vg b pr  
  • 1665 normal wings, a grey body and red eyes, vg+ b+ pr+
  • 252 normal wings, an black body and purple eyes, vg+ b pr
  • 241 vestigial wings, a gray body and red eyes, vg b+ pr+
  • 131 normal wings, an black body and red eyes, vg +b pr+
  • 118 vestigial wings, a gray body and purple eyes, vg b+ pr
  • 13 vestigial wings, an black body and red eyes, vg b pr+
  • 9 normal wings, a gray body and purple eyes, vg+ b+ pr

Answer:

  • The order of these genes is vg --- pr --- b
  • Map distances between the genes vg/pr = 12.2 MU
  • Map distance between the genes pr/b = 6.4 MU
  • Map distances between the genes vg/b = 18.6 MU

Explanation:

We know that

•Normal wings expressed by vg+ is dominant over vestigial wings, vg

•Gray body b+ is dominant over black body

•Red eyes, pr+, is dominant over purple ayes, pr

We have the number of descendants of each phenotype product of the tri-hybrid cross.

•1779 vestigial wings, black body and purple eyes vg b pr  

•1665 normal wings, a grey body and red eyes vg+ b+ pr+

•252 normal wings, an black body and purple eyes vg+ b pr

•241 vestigial wings, a gray body and red eyes vg b+ pr+

•131 normal wings, an black body and red eyes vg +b pr+

• 118 vestigial wings, a gray body and purple eyes vg b+ pr

•13 vestigial wings, an black body and red eyes vg b pr+

• 9 normal wings, a gray body and purple eyes vg+ b+ pr

The total number of individuals is 4208.

In a tri-hybrid cross, it can occur that the three genes assort independently or that two of them are linked and the third not, or that the three genes are linked. In this example, in particular, the three genes are linked on the same chromosome.

Knowing that the genes are linked, we can calculate genetic distances between them. First, we need to know their order in the chromosome, and to do so, we need to compare the genotypes of the parental gametes with the ones of the double recombinants. We can recognize the parental gametes in the descendants because their phenotypes are the most frequent, while the double recombinants are the less frequent. So:

<u>Parental)</u>

  • 1779 vestigial wings, black body and purple eyes vg b pr  
  • 1665 normal wings, a grey body and red eyes vg+ b+ pr+

<u>Double recombinant)</u>

  • 13 vestigial wings, an black body and red eyes vg b pr+
  • 9 normal wings, a gray body and purple eyes vg+ b+ pr

<u>Simple recombinant)</u>

  • 252 normal wings, an black body and purple eyes vg+ b pr
  • 241 vestigial wings, a gray body and red eyes vg b+ pr+
  • 131 normal wings, an black body and red eyes vg +b pr+
  • 118 vestigial wings, a gray body and purple eyes vg b+ pr

Comparing parental with the double recombinants we will realize that between  

  • vg b pr (parental)
  • vg b pr+ (double recombinant)

and  

  • vg+ b+ pr+ (Parental)
  • vg+ b+ pr (double recombinant)

They only change in the position of the alleles pr/pr+. This suggests that the position of the gene pr is in the middle of the other two genes, vg and b, because in a double recombinant only the central gene changes position in the chromatid.  

So, the order of the genes is:

---- vg ---- pr -----b ----

Now we will call Region I to the area between vg and pr and Region II to the area between pr and b.

Once established the order of the genes we can calculate distances between them, and we will do it from the central gene to the genes on each side. First We will calculate the recombination frequencies, and we will do it by region. We will call P1 to the recombination frequency between vg and pr genes, and P2 to the recombination frequency between pr and b.

P1 = (R + DR) / N

P2 = (R + DR)/ N

Where: R is the number of simple recombinants in each region, DR is the number of double recombinants in each region, and N is the total number of individuals.  

So:

Parental)

• 1779 vestigial wings, black body and purple eyes vg pr b  

• 1665 normal wings, a grey body and red eyes vg+ pr+ b+  

Double recombinant)

• 13  vg pr+ b  

• 9  vg+ pr b+  

Simple recombinant)

• 252  vg+ pr b  

• 241 vg pr+ b+  

• 131  vg+ pr+ b  

• 118  vg pr b+  

P1 = (R + DR) / N

P1 = (252+241+13+9)/4208

P1 = 515/4208

P1 = 0.122

P2= (R + DR) / N

P2 = (131+118+13+9)/4208

P2 = 271/4208

P2 = 0.064

Now, to calculate the recombination frequency between the two extreme genes, vg and b, we can just perform addition or a sum:

P1 + P2= Pt

0.122 + 0.064 = Pt

0.186=Pt

The genetic distance will result from multiplying that frequency by 100 and expressing it in map units (MU). One centiMorgan (cM) equals one map unit (MU).  

The map unit is the distance between the pair of genes. Every 100 meiotic products, one of them results in a recombinant product. Now we must multiply each recombination frequency by 100 to get the genetic distance in map units:

GD1= P1 x 100 = 0.122 x 100 = 12.2 MU

GD2= P2 x 100 = 0.064 x 100 = 6.4 MU

GD3=Pt x 100 = 0.186 x 100 = 18.6 MU

---- vg ---------------------- pr ---------------------b ----

                    R1                                 R2

-----vg----12.2MU---------pr—

                                   ----pr--------6.4 MU----b—

-----vg ----------------18.6 MU--------------------b----

What is nondisjunction in meiosis?​
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

failure of a pair of homologous chromosomes to separate in meiosis I, failure of sister chromatids to separate during meiosis II, and failure of sister chromatids to separate during mitosis. Nondisjunction results in daughter cells with abnormal chromosome numbers (aneuploidy).
