Answer:
C)Parental: 41% Dr, 41% dR; recombinant: 9% DR, 9% dr.
Explanation:
The notation Dr/dR for genotypes means that one homologous chromosome has the alleles Dr and the other homologous chromosome has the alleles dR.
The heterozygous plant Dr/dR will produce 4 types of gametes: two identical to the chromosmes the individual has in its somatic cells (called parental), and two gametes which will be a mix of the alleles in the homologous chromosomes (called recombinant).
- Dr: parental
- dR: parental
- DR: recombinant
- dr: recombinant
To calculate the frequency of each type of gamete, we must use the formula:
Distance (map units) / 100 = frequency of recombination.
18 mu / 100 = 0.18.
The total frequency of recombination between the genes D and R is 0.18, but every time crossing over happens, two recombinant gametes are generated. Therefore, each recombinant gamete will have a frequency of 0.18/2=0.09 = 9%.
The frequency of parental gametes will be:
1 - frequency of recombinant gametes
1 - 0.18 = 0.82
But there are 2 parental gametes, so each of them will have a frequency of 0.82/2=0.41 = 41%.
The correct answer is option B, that is, Genetic drift greatly affects small populations, but large populations can recover.
Genetic drift in combination with mutation, natural selection, and migration is one of the most fundamental mechanisms of evolution. Genetic drift refers to a change in the relative frequency of distinct genotypes in a small populace, owing to the chance vanishing of specific genes as individuals do not reproduce or die.
