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%.

How does deforestation lead to helping conservation?
Nitella [24]

Answer:

Deforestation leads to the loss of biodiversity and of indigenous tribes’ homes. Deforestation also affects billions more people around the world indirectly, through its impact on climate change, water and nutrient cycling and food availability. The world’s benefit from conservation far outweighs the costs to the owner, such as the profit they lose by not logging. It would thus make sense for the wealthier North to simply pay the tropical countries in the South to conserve and protect their forests.

A germ line mutation can have what possible outcome on the progeny (offspring)?
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

A germline mutation, or germinal mutation, is any detectable variation within germ cells (cells that, when fully developed, become sperm and ovum). Mutations in these cells are the only mutations that can be passed on to offspring, when either a mutated sperm or oocyte come together to form a zygote.
