Answer:
20.3%
Explanation:
Given that:
An AAbb strain is crossed to an aaBB strain
i.e.
AAbb × aaBB
gametes Ab aB
For F₁
generation;
If the resulting progeny are now self-crossed.
We know that the genetic distance between these two genes on the same chromosome is said to be 10 cM.
i.e. the recombinant gene = 10%; Hence, the parental gene will be (100 - 10)% = 90%
Ab × aB = Aa AB ab Bb
From above; the parental gene;
Ab and aB = 90% with each being 45%
i.e. Ab = 45% and aB = 45%
while the recombinants genes are:
AB and ab = 10%
i.e. AB = 5% and ab = 5%
Finally; the percentage of aaBB is = aB% × aB% × 100%
the percentage of aaBB is = 0.45 × 0.45 × 100%
the percentage of aaBB is = 20.25% ≅ 20.3%
Answer:
i) Glucose
ii) β(1-4) glycosidic bonds.
iii) Oxygen
Explanation:
Cellulose is an important structural carbohydrate found in plants. It forms a major component of the plant cell wall.
Cellulose is a polysaccharide formed by monomers of glucose. These glucose monomers are joined together by covalent bonds called β(1-4) glycosidic bonds, which means that the 1st carbon of one glucose is bound to the 4th carbon of the next glucose. To make this arrangement, every other glucose molecule in cellulose is inverted, which you can see in the diagram.
Glucose monomers contain carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen only. If you look at the pattern of the molecule (remembering every second glucose is inverted), you can see that Z must be O.
The functional group denoted by Z is oxygen. The OH groups on the glucose from one cellulose chain form hydrogen bonds with oxygen atoms on the same or on another chain, holding the chains firmly together and forming very strong molecules - giving cellulose its strength.
