Answer:

<h2>Recombination rate or recombination frequency between locus A and locus C is either 2% or 50%. </h2>

Explanation:

As given,

Recombination frequency between locus A and B is 35%, means that the distance between A and B is 35 cM.

Recombination frequency between locus B and C is 33% , means the distance between B and C is 33 cM.

Therefore, if the locus C is present between A and B, then the recombination frequency between A and C would be 2%

A-----C ----------B

A---C= 2%

A----B= 35%

B---C= 33%

So, here the recombination frequency between A and C is 2%, means their distance is 2 cM.

If the locus C is as,   A---35---B--33----C ;   A-----B------C

A-----B= 35%

B------C= 33%

A-----C= 33+35= 68%

As rule, maximum frequency can not exceed 50%, as here the Recombination frequency between A and C = 50%.

Why is it important to have maps of the ocean floor, such as those gathered with SeaBeam technology
Anni [7]

Since oceans cover 71% of the Earth’s surface, understanding what the seafloor looks like, and where different processes, such as ocean currents are active, is hugely important. Mapping the seafloor helps to work out things like where different types of fish live, where resources may be, such as rare metals and fossil fuels, and whether there is a risk of underwater landslides happening that might cause a tsunami. Mapping the seafloor is very challenging, because some cannot use the same techniques that some would use on land. To map the deep ocean, there's a tool used called a multibeam echo-sounder, which is attached to a ship or a submarine vessel.

WHICH SPECIES OF ANIMALS ARE AFECTED THE MOST BY ACTIONS OF HUMANS IN CURRENT TIMES?SUGGEST WAYS TO PROTECT THEM.
Finger [1]

Answer:

Polar Bears

Explanation:

The species that has most likely been the most affected by human actions would be the Polar Bears. The human population is growing at a staggering rate and this causes industrialization to expand rapidly as well. This continued and increasing use of fossil fuels for all of our basic necessities is rapidly heating up our world (Global Warming) and melting the ice caps. Without this it becomes nearly impossible for Polar bears to survive as they cannot find shelter and ultimately end up starving to death due to not being able to hunt for food as well. The only way to protect them is to begin protecting our planet, switching to more environmentally friendly sources of energy, and being mindful of our choices.
