Answer:

Crossing over is the exchanging of genetic material between two paired chromosomes. Crossing over is a way to recombine the genetic material so that each person (except for identical twins) is genetically unique. It is essential for the normal segregation of chromosomes during meiosis. Crossing over also accounts for genetic variation, because due to the swapping of genetic material during crossing over, the chromatids held together by the centromere are no longer identical.

Explanation:

We are learning the same things, apparently. I just learned this myself, and am working on it right now.

adoni [48]

Answer: The correct answer to the question is option C

BECAUSE YOU HAVE HAD ONE CHILD WITH TAY-SACHS,YOU MUST EACH CARRY THE ALLELE.ANY CHILD YOU HAVE HAS A 25% CHANCE OF HAVING THE DISEASE.

Explanation: Tay- Sachs is a rare disorder that is inherited,it is characterised by a progressive destruction of the nerves of the brain and spinal cord.its onset is from around 6months of life to around 4-5years of age when the child affected eventually dies.

A Child that have Tay-Sachs experiences problem with coordination,muscle contraction, must stiffness and weakness.there is also difficulty is speaking, swallowing, wasting(uncontrolled weightloss), hearing loss,seizure, and vision loss.

Since the parents of the child in the question claims they don't have Tay- Sachs and no one in the family has it but they came down with a child having Tay-Sachs and one of the major factors to Tay-Sachs as stated above is heredity,the main point to counsel the couples on is that because they have had one child with Tay-Sachs,they most each carry the allele which is obviously recessive so any child they had have has 25% chance of having the disease.

What are the four evolutionary events important for plants?
aleksley [76]
One evolutionary event important for plants was the development of the atmosphere and oxygen and carbon dioxide since plants take in carbon dioxide and give off oxygen. The development of photosynthesis was key to taking advantage of this aiding in the ingestion of carbon dioxide and the respiration of oxygen. Also, the development of soil for plants to grow in is related to the evolution of landforms as for example the flooding of the banks of major rivers to deposit silt useful as a growing medium or the melting of glaciers forming glacio-fluvial soil deposits helped to provide such growing mediums. Natural selection also played a role in plant evolution so that varieties of each plant species developed and the varieties favorable to the environmental conditions would thrive. Also, biodiversity or the development of many types of plants adapted to their environment and to each other was very important to the development of say a rainforest or a tropical jungle.
