Three reasons that might have influenced authorities in the department of agriculture to use a higher percentage of Nguni on the
djyliett [7]

Answer:

Tolerance to heat, light and parasite.

Explanation:

Characteristics of tolerance to heat, light and parasite are the three reasons that might use a higher percentage of Nguni on the sector of livestock farmers in South Africa in 2003. The temperature of South Africa is extremely high which can be tolerated by the Nguni cattle due to its good characteristics. The Nguni cattle can bear extreme temperature, high intensity of light and resistance to parasites make it best suited for that environment.

Lesson 01.04 Properties of Water
ryzh [129]

Answer:

1= In living organisms cells are composed of water or we can say that water is one of the important constituent of cells.

2= Hydrogen bonding import man properties to the water such as cohesion, high heat of vaporization, high heat capacity etc.

3= Because of high polarity, all polar substance get dissolve and make it universal solvent.

Explanation:

Solvent is the that part of solution which is present in large proportion and have ability to dissolve the solute. In simplest form it is something in which other substance get dissolve. The most widely used solvent is water, other examples are toluene, acetone, ethanol, chloroform etc.

Water is called universal solvent because of high polarity all polar substance are dissolve in it. Hydrogen is less electronegative while oxygen is more electronegative and because of difference in electronegativity hydrogen carry the partial positive charge while oxygen carry partial negative charge.

Hydrogen bond:

The hydrogen bond is the attraction between the toms which already take part in the other chemical bons. The one atom is hydrogen while other may be oxygen, nitrogen or fluorine.

The hydrogen bonding in water import man y properties in it such cohesion, high heat of vaporization, high heat capacity etc. The hydrogen bond hold the water molecules together.

Water create electrostatic interaction with other polar molecules. The negative end of water attract the positive end of polar molecules and positive end of water attract negative end of polar substance and in this way polar substance get dissolve in it.

Example:

when we stir the sodium chloride into water the cation Na⁺ ions are surrounded by the negative end of water i.e oxygen and anion Cl⁻ is surrounded by the positive end of water i.e hydrogen and in this way all salt is get dissolved.

Assume that two genes are 80 map units apart on chromosome II of Drosophila and that a cross is made between a doubly heterozygo
STatiana [176]

Answer:

The recombination frequency between two genes exhibits a positive correlation with the distance between them, that is, farther they are, and more will be the chance of recombination. Thus, recombination frequency is used to signify distance among the two genes, for example, 1 percent recombination frequency demonstrates distance of 1 map unit.  

Let us consider that the heterozygous female of genotype AaBb can generate four kinds of gametes, that is, AB, Ab, aB and ab. Of these, the two gametes are the outcomes of recombination, or it can be said that 50 percent are recombinants. Thus, it can be concluded that in case of two linked genes, the maximum probable recombination frequency is 50 percent.  

This shows that any genes, which are distant than 50 map units will function as unlinked and will function as if they were on distinct chromosomes, and the frequency of recombinant frequency will be 50 percent.  

In the given question, it is given that the map distance between the two genes is 80 map units, that is, more than 50 map units. The maximum probable recombinant offspring will be 50 percent of the entire offspring.
