Answer:

linkage with approximately 33 map units between the two gene loci

Explanation:

If two genes are not linked, number of recombinants and parental offspring will be equal. Here it is clearly visible that recombinants are less than parental offspring hence the genes are linked. Given, the offspring are in following numbers:

AaBb = 106 = Parental

aabb = 94 = Parental

Aabb = 48 = Recombinant

aaBb = 52 = Recombinant

Recombination frequency = (Number of recombinants/ Total progeny) * 100 = (100/300) * 100 = 33.33 %

1% recombination frequency= 1 map unit of distance between the two gene loci. So here the distance between the two gene loci is approximately 33 map units.

Hence, these results are consistent with linkage with approximately 33 map units between the two gene loci

IrinaVladis [17]

Complete question:

If the recessive allele for cystic fibrosis is represented as c, classify the following genotypes as homozygous dominant, homozygous recessive, or carriers: CC,Cc, and cc. State which one has the phenotype of cystic fibrosis.

Answer:

CC - homozygous dominant

cc - homozygous recessive

Cc - carriers

cc will have the phenotype

Explanation:

Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive disorder that affects the production of mucus in the body, primarily affecting the lungs and digestive system.

Because it is autosomal recessive, an affected individual needs to inherit 2 copies of the faulty gene. The presence of just one normal copy of the gene is sufficient not to cause the disease

In genetics, the dominant allele is usually displayed as a capital letter and the recessive as a small letter. Homozygous means someone has 2 copies of the same allele, heterozygous means they have different alleles. Therefore, CC - homozygous dominant, cc - homozygous recessive, and Cc - carriers. Only those with a cc genotype will be affected, as the presence of one dominant allele is enough to block the phenotype
