Why do calculated recombination frequencies between pairs of loci that are located far apart underestimate the true genetic dist
den301095 [7]

Answer:

B. As the distance between loci increases, some multiple crossovers go undetected such that the relationship between recombination frequency and map distance ceases to be linear.  

Explanation:

When calculating recombination frequencies, and hence, map distances, we might notice that these distances are not completely additive. They might vary. <em>For example, let us say that we have three genes, A, B, and C, in that order. </em>We calculated that the <em>distance between A and B equals 5.9</em> MU and that <em>B and C are 19.5 MU apart.</em> According to this, we might say that the <em>total distance between A and C is 25.4 MU (5.9 + 19.5). </em>However, after a<em> two-point calculation between A and C, the value equals 23.7 MU. </em>

The recombination frequency between these two genes located in the extremes and far apart underestimate the actual genetic distances between them because there might occur other crossing-overs that were not detected. This is <em>when calculating the distance between A and C, we probably will not detect the occurrence of a double recombinant between them, and hence, we might sub-estimate the real distance.</em>

The relationship between the actual map distance (number of crossing overs) and the recombination frequency between two loci, is not lineal. The farther apart are the two genes, the worse is the distance estimation.

Why do polygenic characteristics have many phenotypes?
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

The involvement of more than two genes.

Explanation:

The polygenic characteristics have many phenotypes because more than two genes governs the phenotype of individual organism. The single gene contains a pair of alleles that codes for two phenotype and two genes will code for 4 phenotype. Thus, more than two genes for example, three genes will have six phenotypes.

The skin color and height are polygenic characterstics in humans.

The major organs which control acids and bases in the body are:
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

1. kidneys 2. Lungs 5. Pancreas

Explanation:

The body's balance between acidity and alkalinity in the human body is regarded as the acid-base balance which is measured on the basis of the pH and the concentration of carbon dioxide and bicarbonate in the blood. The organs that controls acid-base balance are lungs, kidneys and pancreas. Theses organs control blood pH by releasing carbon dioxide from the lungs because it is a waste product slightly acidic in nature and excreting excess of acids and bases from the body.

What is the impact of our energy usage on the earth system ?
bogdanovich [222]
All energy sources have some impact on our environment. Fossil fuels—coal, oil, and natural gas—do substantially more harm than renewable energy sources by most measures, including air and water pollution, damage to public health, wildlife and habitat loss, water use, land use, and global warming emissions.
