Complete question:

Question: Genes in different chromosomes _____ during meiosis. Genes that are very close together in the same chromosome are _____.

a) do not assort independently; unrelated

b) assort independently; unrelated

c) assort independently; linked

d) do not assort independently; linked

Answer:

c) assort independently; linked

Explanation:

During anaphase-I of meiotic division, homologous chromosomes are moved to the opposite poles of the cell. This segregation also separates the alleles of genes present on the chromosomes to the opposite poles. The segregation of genes is a random event which means that the alleles of one gene segregate independently of the alleles of some other gene. This requires that the genes are present on separate chromosomes.

The genes present close together on the same chromosomes are linked. This means that they are inherited together and do not exhibit independent assortment.

What are the products of light-dependent reactions? Why are they important in light-independent reactions?
tamaranim1 [39]

The products of light-dependent reaction are ATP and NADPH. They are essentially required to fix carbon dioxide and make glucose in light-independent reactions.

Light-dependent reactions are those that use the direct sunlight energy to make usable forms of chemical energy i.e., ATP and NADPH. For this, a pigment called chlorophyll is essential that has the ability to the capture the sunlight.

Light-independent reactions are those that do not directly depend on the sunlight energy to complete their process. Instead they are dependent on the products of light reactions so that they can fix atmospheric carbon dioxide and make glucose for the plant. Calvin cycle is the main process of light-independent reaction.
