In hamsters, we can examine the genes for coat color and eye color which are linked:B = brown coat, b = white coat, G = green ey

es, g = pink eyesTwo purebreeding hamsters were mated. All the F1 were brown with green eyes. F1 hamsters were mated several times with purebreeding white hamsters with pink eyes and the F2 offspring were:Brown, pink eyes – 99White, green eyes – 103Brown, green eyes – 12White, pink eyes- 11Approximately how far apart are the two genes?

Answer:

10.2 cM

Explanation:

Given,

pure breeding parent 1 : BBgg = brown coat and pink eyes

pure breeding parent 2 : bbGG = white coat and green eyes

BBGG X bbgg = F1 = BbGg ( All are brown with green eyes )

When F1 progeny is test crossed with white coat and pink eyes hamster:

BbGg X BbGg = F2 =

brown, pink eyes = 99 = parental

white, green eyes = 103 = parental

brown, green eyes = 12 = recombinant

white, pink eyes = 11 = recombinant

Recombination frequency =

(total number of recombinants / total progeny ) * 100

= [( 11 + 12 ) / ( 99 + 103 + 12 + 11 )] * 100 = (23/225)*100 = 0.102 * 100 = 10.2 %

1 % recombination frequency = 1 cM distance between genes

Hence, the distance between B and G gene is 10.2 cM

Which of the following are atoms of the same element? Check all that apply. an atom with eight protons and seven electrons an at
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

an atom with eight protons and seven electrons

an atom with eight protons and eight electrons

an atom with eight protons and no electrons

Explanation:

To tell atoms of the same element, it is safe to look at the number of protons. In neutral atoms, the number of protons will be equal with that of electrons but nonetheless, electrons are easily knocked out of their orbit to create charged atoms. Neutrons, on the other hand, can slightly vary in number  creating different isotopes of the element. Changing the protons would change the atom into that of another element. Protons, therefore, are used to place an element on the periodic table.
