Data given
Number of electron = 108
Number of neutron = 158
Required
Mass number=?
Solution
As we know that mass number = No of proton + No of neutron
In any neutral atom the number of proton is always equal to number of electron
So number of proton will be = 108
However the atom has +1 charge which means that one proton is less than no of electron so proton number is 107.
Put values in above formula, we will get
Mass number= 107+108
= 215 Mass number
Answer:
X-Chromosomes.
Explanation:
Characters determined by a gene located on only the X-chromosome are said to be sex-linked. Such traits show a different pattern of inheritance in males and females. For example, a recessive allele on the X-chromosome
• would be masked in a female if the corresponding allele on the other X-chromosome is dominant;
• would always be expressed in a male because the Y-chromosome does not have a corresponding(active) allele.
Thus, the female may posses a homozygous or heterozygous allelic pair for a sex-linked character, but a male will only have one allele for it.
D) creates a variety of intercellular enviroment
Answer:
Explanation:
The homozygous recessive individual can only produce 1 type of gamete (<em>aabb</em>).
The heterozygous individual can produce 8 types of gametes, of which 2 are parental and the rest are recombinant.
Genetic distance (m.u.) = Frequency of Recombination (%)
If the distance between genes A and B is 50 m.u., 50% of the gametes produced by the heterozygous individual, and therefore the offspring, will have recombinant phenotypes.
Without knowing that the genes are located on the same chromosomes, I'd think they are on different chromosomes, because you would get the same result: 50% recombinant offspring.
Whenever the genes on the same chromosome are separated by at least 50 m.u., or they are in different chromosomes, crossing over between them can happen with no restrictions and they will behave as independent of one another.
