how is the expression of sex linked genes both similar to and different from the expression of autosomal genes?

1 answer:

8 0

Since males have only x-chromosome they are more likely to express x-linked (by far the most common type of sex - linked disorders ) recessive traits. females can also not express any y-linked traits. females have a backup copy of the genes on their other x-chromosome, similar to autosomal chromosomes.

Which of the following factors made it more likely that similar individuals would mate with each other?

Firdavs [7]

Answer: 1) Selectivity in choosing mates

3) Geographical barrier separating subpopulations

Explanation: mates selection is one of the main factors that helps to ensure that similar mates are attracted to each other. The mates select their best fits by checking various things such as phenotype and the overall genetic make-up of the prospective mates.

Geographical barrier separating subpopulations is another factor that ensures that similar individuals mate each other,this can be seen in animal species found in different continents,this animals will not be able to mate other species outside their subpopulations due to the geographical barrier. Hence, restricting them to the similar animals within.
