In Drosophila, the genes crossveinless-c and Stubble are linked, about 7 map units apart on chromosome 3. cv-c is a recessive mu

tant allele of crossveinless-c (cv-c+ is wild type), while Sb is a dominant mutant allele of Stubble (Sb+ is wild type). A dihybrid female Drosophila with genotype cv-c Sb+/cv-c+Sb is testcrossed. The proportion of phenotypically wild-type individuals in the progeny of the testcross will be:
A. 0.035.
B. 0.070.
C. 0.350.
D. 0.465
E. 0.930

Answer:

A. 0.035.

Explanation:

Female : cv-cSb+/cv-c+Sb

Male : cv-cSb/cv-cSb ( since test cross involves mating with a recessive parent )

Their progeny:

cv-cSb+/cv-cSb : parental

cv-c+Sb/cv-cSb : parental

cv-c+Sb+/cv-cSbc : recombinant

cv-cSb/cv-cSb : recombinant

Wild type phenotype (cv-c+Sb+/cv-cSbc) is a recombinant. Distance between the two genes is 7mu. Since map distance is equal to recombination percentage, there will be 7% recombinants in the progeny. Out of total 7% recombinants, 3.5% will be cv-c+Sb+/cv-cSbc( wild type) and rest 3.5% will be cv-cSb/cv-cSb (mutant type).

Hence, proportion of phenotypically wild-type individuals in the progeny of the test cross will be 3.5% or 0.035.

Organize the parts of this body system in the CORRECT order (starting with is organism level) according to levels of organizatio
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

neurons - nerve tissue - brain - central nervous system - human being.

Explanation:

Reason: The Levels of Organization is organizing how everything in a human body is put together. Example: Neuron (or cell), tissues (that are made from cells that come together), heart (is created when groups of tissues come together), circulatory system (is made when other groups of organs come together to form a system that work with each other to maintain life), and then the is carries on with other systems that together form the human body

Which of the following would not be considered a point source pollution contributor? a. an animal feedlot b. cattle on rangeland
Luden [163]
The correct answer is b: cattle on rangeland. A point source of pollution occurs from a single identifiable and usually spatially narrow source. These sources of pollution are usually relatively easily to quantify and manage. In contrast, a non-point source of pollution, such as cattle on rangeland or irrigated agriculture, is variable on both spatial and temporal scales. These sources of pollution are difficult to quantify and manage.
