Ksju [112]

Answer:

I think the answer is A.

Explanation:

Ponds and lakes are both inland bodies of freshwater that contain living creatures. Lakes are normally much deeper than ponds and have a larger surface area. ... All the water in a pond is in the photic zone, meaning ponds are shallow enough to allow sunlight to reach the bottom.

The yearly process known as thermal stratification. A pond that is thermally stratified simply means that there is a noticeable temperature gradient as the water gets deeper. You may have noticed this in summer while swimming.

In the fruit fly Drosophila, there is a dominant gene for normal wings and its recessive allele for vestigial wings. At another

aev [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

The genes for vestigial wings (vg) and purple eyes (pr) are linked on the same chromosome.

The following cross was made:

Heterozygous male for both genes X female vg pr / vg pr

The male could be either vg+pr+/vg pr or vg+ pr/vg pr+.

The female only produces vg pr gametes.

The following offspring was observed:

420 Normal wings and red eyes (vg+ pr+/vg pr)

430 Vestigial wings and purple eyes (vg pr / vg pr)

80 Vestigial wings and red eyes (vg pr+ / vg pr)

70 Normal wings and purple eyes (vg+ pr / vg pr)

Total: 1000

The individuals observed in the highest frequency have the parental genotypes. The recombinant individuals are vg pr+ / vg pr and vg+ pr / vg pr.

Distance = Number of recombinants × 100 / Total

Distance = (80 + 70)×100 / 1000

Distance = 15 cM.

Just a small note, male drosophila do not experience crossing over in meiosis, so there would be no recombinants observed from this cross. The problem is probably mixed up, the female should be heterozygous and the male the homozygous recessive.
