You have mated a phenotypically wild-type female of the genotype Xy+w+Xyw to a male with the genotype XywY. You counted 2205 tot

al F1 progeny and found 17 flies with gray bodies and white eyes and 12 flies that had yellow body and red eyes. What is the distance between these genes controlling body color and eye color on the X chromosome?

Answer:

1.31 cM

Explanation:

Total offspring = 2205

Since two genes are involved, F1 progeny should have four types of combination. Out of them two are 17 and 12 which definitely means they are in lesser number. Since recombinants are always less than parental progeny in linkage, the given two types are recombinants.

Recombination frequency = (Number of recombinants / Total progeny) * 100

= [ ( 17 + 12 ) / 2205 ] * 100

= ( 29 / 2205 ) * 100

= 1.31 %

Map distance = Recombination frequency

Hence, distance between two genes = 1.31 cM

1. What interactions affect protons in an atomic nucleus? More than one answer may be correct.
irga5000 [103]
A=
In the nature there are four fundamental forces, namely nuclear force, electromagnetic force, weak force, and gravitational force. These forces are arranged with respect to their strengths in descending order.
The nuclear forces are of greater strengths.
These bind up the protons and the neutrons in an atom together. The nuclear forces are strong enough to combine the quarks that form the nucleons.

B= The weak forces of the interaction are the forces that are short ranged and cause the instability of the nucleus. These are 1/10^5 times of the nuclear forces.

C= The electromagnetic forces are the forces that which combine the atoms and the molecules that intend form the ordinary matter. The electromagnetic forces are 1/10^5times of the nuclear forces.

D= The gravitational forces are 1/10^5 times of the nuclear force.
