Two genes on chromosome 7 of corn are identified by the recessive alleles gl (glossy), which determines glossy leaves, and ra (r

amosa), which determines branching of ears. When a plant heterozygous for each of these alleles was crossed with a homozygous recessive plant, the progeny consisted of the following genotypes:
Gl ra 88 gl Ra 103
Gl Ra 6 gl ra 3
a. What is the frequency of recombination between these genes?
Biology
1 answer:
Alchen [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

recombination frequency = 4.5% or 4.5mu

Explanation:

to calculate the frequency of recombination between these genes

we have,

recombination frequency = [ number of recombinnants/total number of offsprings) x 100

total offspring  = 88 + 103 + 6 + 3

total offspring =  200

Gl ra 88............................ parent

gl Ra 103.........................parent

Gl Ra 6..................................... recombinant

gl ra 3................................................ recombinant

recombination frequency = {6+3/88 + 103 + 6 + 3} x 100

recombination frequency = 9/200 x1oo

recombination frequency = 0.045 x 100

recombination frequency = 4.5% or 4.5mu

Similarities between water borne diseases and water washed diseases
kaheart [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Water washed disease are diseased that occur due to lack of water for proper personal use.

Often common in areas with predominantly poor people.

Water borne diseases are disease that are are transmitted by pathogens and micro organisms in water. Bacteria and protozoan are major carriers of water borne disease. When exposes to contaminated water one could get the disease from there.

Both water borne and water washed diseased are characterized by pathogens and micro organism.

They both result in serious medical condition that requires treatment via drug administration.

Lack of proper hygiene can result in both water washed and water borne disease.

g In transcription, the 3'-hydroxyl group of the growing RNA strand: Group of answer choices NONE OF THESE binds to the 5' ribos
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

attacks the outermost phosphorous group of the incoming nucleotide.  

Explanation:

Transcription is the biological process where RNA is formed. As you may already know, RNA is an extremely important nucleic acid for genetic processes and the production of proteins. The transcription has three steps that are called start, elongation and end. In the elongation phase, the RNA strand is growing, at this time, RNA polymerase, which is the enzyme responsible for RNA elaboration, places the nucleotides, in the RNA strand, in the 5' - 3' direction. This enzyme causes the hydroxyl, which makes up the nucleotide at the 3' end of the forming RNA, to attack the phosphorus present in the incoming  ribonucleotide.
