Two autosomal genes, J and K, are 60 map units apart. You perform the following testcross: J K / j k x j k / j k. At what freque
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

  • J K / j k = 20%
  • j k / j k = 20%
  • J k / j k = 30%
  • j K / j k = 30%                

Explanation:

To calculate the recombination frequency, we have to know that 1% of recombinations = 1 map unit = 1cm. And that the maximum recombination frequency is always 50%.

The map unit is the distance between the pair of genes for which every 100 meiotic products, one of them results in a recombinant one.

So, en the exposed example:

  • J and K are autosomal genes
  • J and K are separated by 60 M.U.
  • 60 M.U. means that there is 60% of recombination.

Cross)             J K / j k                    x                  j k / j k

Gametes) JK  Parental                                     jk, jk, jk, jk

                jk   Parental                                  

                Jk   Recombinant                          

                 jK   Recombinant

One map unit equals 1% of recombination frequency. This means that every 100 meiotic products, one of them is a recombinant one.

1 M.U. -------------- 1% recombination

60 M.U. ------------ 60% recombination

                              30% Jk  +  30% jK

100 M.U. - 60 M.U. = 40 M.U.

40M.U.--------------40 % Parental (Not recombinant)

                            20% JK   +   20% jk

Punnet Square)           JK       jk      Jk      jK

                          jk     JK/jk   jk/jk   Jk/jk   jK/jk

J K / j k = 20%

j k / j k = 20%

J k / j k = 30%

j K / j k = 30%

Which of these forces help protons and neutrons to stay at the center of the atom?
Firlakuza [10]
Can't be gravitational, due to the fact that atoms are way too small to have a gravitational pull for something of similar size.
 

The strong nuclear force is the answer you're looking for.

Describe what happened to the average yearly temperature on earth from 1970 to 1990. Give one possible reason why this change oc
FrozenT [24]

Explanation:

In the given question, the graph has been shown representing the change in temperature on Earth between 1900 to 1990. The graph has been made by plotting temperature ( °F) on y-axis vs Year on the x-axis.

From the graph, it can be observed that the temperature on Earth has increased over the years but between 1970 to 1990 the temperature has increased from 56.9 °F to 58.1 °F approximately.

The reason for this increase in temperature could be accounted to the fact that the burning of fossil fuels like petrol, gas, coal and others increased over these years which increased the amount of carbon dioxide and other harmful gases in the atmosphere.

Due to the increase in these gas, the greenhouse effect was observed and the temperature of the Earth begins to rise at an alarming rate.
