I think the answer is B . condensation
Answer:
Option-D
Explanation:
In the given question the genotype of parental allele is- AbaB X AbaB. The alleles formed will be- AB, Ab,aB, ab in which the crossover allele will be AB and ab.
1. Unlinked genes
Now of these alleles are unlinked then the alleles will assort independently of each other therefore performing the punnett square we will get dihybrid ratio as 9:3:3:1 in which
1. A_B_ are 9
2. aaB_ are 3
3. A_bb are-3
4. aabb- 1
Since the crossover allele are AB and ab therefore A_B_ are 9 and aabb- 1 represent recombinant genotype.
2. Linked genes
When the genes will be linked then chances of crossing over will be reduced as a result of which only two type of allele will be formed which are- Ab and aB and the recombinant frequency will become less.
Crossing these allele will form Aabb
, AaBb
, AaBb and aaBB genotypes.
The recombinant ratio will decrease as A_B_ is 2 and aabb is not present.
Thus, option-4 which states that the unlinked ration is 9:3:3:1 and linked ratio is <9: >3: >3: <1 is correct.
Answer: a. mutation
Explanation:
A mutation is a change or alteration and a process that occurs in the DNA sequence of the organism. This happens due to the mistake in the DNA replication process or because of the environmental factors for example exposure to the UV radiation or due to smoking. These mutations either favors the survival of the organisms or they are lethal for the organisms.
