The gene D controls wing shape in flies and has two alleles: D is wild-type and dominant, and d is recessive and causes flies to

have downward pointed wings. The gene E controls eye development and also has two alleles: E is wild-type and dominant, and e is recessive and causes the flies to have small eyes. The two genes are located on the same chromosome. A true-breeding fly with wild-type wings and small eyes was crossed with a true-breeding fly with downward wings and wild-type eyes. All of the F1 progeny had a wild-type phenotype. The recombination frequency between the two genes is 20%. If an F1 individual was test crossed to a ddee fly, what percentage of the progeny would you expect to have the WT phenotype?

Answer:

10% of progeny would have wild type phenotype

Explanation:

True breeding fly with wild type wings and small eyes: De/De

True breeding fly with downward wings and wild type eyes: dE/dE

Cross between them :  De/De X dE/dE = De/dE ( F1 )

Recombination frequency = 20%

Next cross, De/dE X de/de =

De/de = parental = 40%

dE/de = parental = 40%

DE/de = recombinant = 10%

de/de = recombinant = 10%

The third genotype i.e. one of the recombinant genotypes will have the wild type makeup ( DE/de ) hence 10% of flies would have wild type phenotype.

GuDViN [60]

Answer:

Biological catalysts in the living organism .

Explanation:

In living organism, enzymes speed up the rate of chemical reaction by lowering the activation energy thereby bringing the reactants close to each other and weakened their chemical bonds which will enable the reactions to be faster.

This is the unequal distribution of ions across a cell membrane.
Nady [450]

Answer:

Concentration gradient

Explanation:

Concentration gradient of the ions across the membrane generates the membrane resting potential.

Concentration gradient means that there is unequal distribution of the ions on different sides of membrane. For example, the concentration of K ions is much higher within the cell then out of the cell. Opposite is with the Na ions. When ions move from the area of their higher concentration to the are with the lower concentration, we say they move down the gradient or diffuse (no energy required). On the other hand, movement of ions against their gradient means that this process requires energy and involves protein pumps.
