What do you mean by responsible? Do you want to know the genetics behind it, what the surface markers do, or why they are metically important? I think I can help.
Answer:
Please find the explanation below
Explanation:
Sexual reproduction is the kind of reproduction that requires two organisms (male and female) to form an offspring. The male organism produces gametes called SPERM while the female organism produces gametes called EGG. These two gametes come together in a process called FERTILIZATION to produce a zygote, which develops into an offspring.
In sexual reproduction, gametes are produced by organisms involved via a process called MEIOSIS. Meiosis, however, reduces the chromosome number of the gametes by half. However, one process unique to only meiosis and sexual reproduction is called CROSSING OVER.
Crossing over is the process whereby chromosome segments is exchanged between non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosome. This process causes a recombination of chromosomes (alleles) in such a way that the gametes will be genetically different from the parent organisms (genetic variation). According to this question, sexual reproduction leads to more genetic variation than asexual reproduction due to the process of CROSSING OVER that occurs in sexual reproduction.
Answer:
1) M1 is heterozygous since it contains 2 bands, which means that it contains one recessive and one dominant allele
P1 is homozygous for this locus, since it contains a single band or is known to be homozygous for the locus or gene.
P2 is hetozygous for this locus because two bands appear in which each band represents one allele for the gene.
ChildC contains two gel bands, representing two alleles and is therefore heterozygous
P1 is the father of the child C1, if we look at the gel, each father shows a similar band, one coinciding with the mother and the second with the father p1
As for the paternity study, the PCR test is not useful, since it provides asymmetric results, thus only one strand information will be provided, and because the DNA is double-stranded, a more complete study is required.:
