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

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

In which column on the chart below would the information below best fit for a mode of reproduction, CANNOT REPRODUCE WITHOUT A H
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

B. Virus.

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, since bacteria (A.) reproduce via asexual reproduction via mitosis and the animal (D.) and vegetal (C.) cells could reproduce via sexual or asexual reproduction depending on the organism, they do not need a host to start the replication of the DNA and therefore reproduce. In such a way, it is widely known that viruses need a host that facilitates the replication of their DNA or RNA (depending on the virus) since they only have their genetic information but they do not have neither the RNA nor the DNA polymerase that favor such process, that is why they need a host.

Best regards.
