Options have not been provided for the question. They are as follows:
What is the correct order for these genes using a linkage map analysis?
A. Z-X-Y-W
B. X-W-Z-Y
C. W-X-Y-Z
D. Y-W-Z-X
E. Z-X-W-Y
F. Y-X-W-Z
Between which two genes is crossing over most likely to occur?
A. B and D
B.X and Z
C. X and W
D. X and Y
E. W and Z
F. Y and W
G.Y and Z
Answer:
Correct order for these genes using a linkage map analysis: E. Z-X-W-Y
Two genes between which the crossover is most likely to occur: G.Y and Z
Explanation:
According to linkage concept, recombination frequency between two genes = distance between two genes in cM
Here, smallest distance is between X and W ( 7cM ) so they are present next to each other. Distance between X and Y is 17cM and between W and Y is 10cM so W is present between X and Y. Distance between X and Z is 13 cM. Since on one side of X, W and Y are already present Z lies on the other side. So, the final gene order comes out to be, Z-X-W-Y.
According to the gene order, Y and Z genes are farthest from each other. Chances of crossover or recombination increases with increasing distance between genes. So, Y and Z have the highest probability to show crossing over.
Enzymes are biological catalysts. Catalysts lower the activation energy for reactions. The faster the rate enzymes speed up reactions by lowering activation energy

Answer:
The prolonged exposure to cortisol hormone may cause different health problems including anxiety, depression, muscle atrophy, hypertension, metabolic problems, diabetes, myopathies, osteoporosis, etc.
Explanation:
Cortisol is a stress hormone secreted by the adrenal glands, it is a steroid hormone that is involved in diverse functions including the control of metabolic and immune responses, salt balance (blood pressure), etc. Moreover, cortisol hormone also has anti-inflammatory properties. However, prolonged exposure to stress hormones like cortisol is associated with different health problems, especially anxiety and depression.
