A test cross was made between true-breeding EEWW flies and eeww flies. The resulting F1 generation was then crossed with eeww fl

ies. 100 offspring in the F2 generation were examined, and it was discovered that the E and W genes were not linked. Which is the correct genotype of the F2 offspring if the genes were linked and if the genes were not linked?

6 0

Explanation:

<h3><u>If the genes were linked:</u></h3>

<u>Parental cross: EW/EW X ew/ew</u>

F1 genotype: EW/ew

F1 Gametes:

- Parentals (more abundant): EW and ew

- Recombinant (less abundant): Ew and eW

<u>Test cross: EW/ew X ew/ew</u>

<u>F2 genotypes:</u>

  • Parentals: EW/ew; ew/ew;
  • Recombinant: Ew/ew; eW/ew

<h3><u>If the genes are not linked:</u></h3>

<u>Parental cross: EEWW X eeww</u>

F1 genotype: EeWw

F1 gametes: EW, Ew, eW, ew. Genes assort independently, so all of the possible gametes of the F1 individual will have the same probability.

<u>Test cross: EeWw X eeww</u>

<u>F2 genotypes:</u>

  • 1/4 EeWw, 1/4 Eeww, 1/4 eeWw, 1/4 eeww

What happens to the speed of sound as it passes from gas to solid? Why?
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

Sound travels fastest through solids. This is because molecules in a solid medium are much closer together than those in a liquid or gas, allowing sound waves to travel more quickly through it. In fact, sound waves travel over 17 times faster through steel than through air.

A neuron and a white blood cell have very different functions. For example, a neuron can receive and respond to electrical signa
Pavel [41]

Answer:

because some genes expressed in neuron is not expressed in WBC's.

Explanation:

Every cell in the body contains the same DNA sequence and the same gene but all the genes are not expressed in a cell. Each cell expresses a particular set of genes according to the function they perform.

For example, a red blood cell will express a gene that code for hemoglobin to carry oxygen but white blood cell do not carry oxygen, therefore, it will not express the gene of hemoglobin rather it will express a gene that make proteins that can be used to kill pathogens.

Therefore according to the function of cell genes are expressed so neurons express genes that make neurons receive and respond to electric signal.
