Genes are located on chromosomes and these chromosomes are passed into the gametes in sexual reproduction. If two genes are closely linked, it is likely that their positions on a chromosome are close together. This is why they are likely to be sent into the same gamete of the parent and inherited by the offspring.

Ede4ka [16]
<span>Insects are found in almost all ecosystems on Earth, with the rarity being oceans. While some species, such as coconut crabs, sand hoppers, woodlice and pill bugs dwell on land, crustaceans are generally found in water — and usually oceanic — regions. Adapting to their habitat, many insect species evolved wings — two pairs for most and one pair for others. A tracheal system is also present for breathing. Crustaceans, on the other hand, breathe using gill-like mechanisms.</span>

In your own words, describe how the time required for digestion can be used to determine the time of death.
Paul [167]

Answer: Backdating the time required for food found in the stomach of the deceased to digest. Since digestion can't continue after death.

Explanation: The time taken for food to get digested can be employed to depicts time of death. This process involves understanding the period of time that usually takes the food found in the gastric of the deceased to calculate the time of death.

Different foods has varying time of digestion, so therefore, the gastric content is a good indicator to determine time of death by the doctor who is carrying out autopsy, since digestion does not continue after death.

However, it is established by scientist that food takes up to 4-6hours in the stomach depending on the size and type of food. Hence, if the status of the food found in the deceased stomach is noted accordingly and the time taken requires for digestion is also noted، the doctor can deduce the time of death accordingly from this two points.
