Answer:

ZZ species will take more number of crosses to produce a recessive offspring.

Explanation:

Here Z seems to be the dominant allele.  A species having ZZ or homozygous dominant genotype shall not express the recessive phenotype until unless it has both recessive allele and this is not possible as of now or is dependent on the genotype of mating species and the number of generations of development.

If ZZ mates with WW, the offspring in F1 generation will have genotype ZW

However, if the offspring in the F1 generation are crossed then in next generation we could see organism with recessive phenotype i,e WW

ZW*ZW

ZZ, ZW, ZW, WW

While in case of organism having ZW type genotype, recessive phenotype will occur in the first generation cross with the ZW.

If your body has developed a tolerance to a medication you're taking, it means the medication at your current dose has stopped working as effectively as it once did. It might mean your body becomes used to the medication, and you don't get the same benefits or effects as before. Drug tolerance is indicative of drug use but is not necessarily associated with drug dependence or addiction. The process of tolerance development is reversible and can involve both physiological factors and psychological factors.

3. What differences would you expect to see in a population made up of individuals whose chromosomes experience crossing-over fr
kramer

Answer:

I would expect to see a greater variety of traits observed. Simplistically, I would expect to see people with blue eyes and brown hair, blonde hair or red hair. Whereas in a population where chromosomes do not cross over, I would expect to see traits that are more frequently associated with each other. For example, I would expect to see a greater proportion of blue eyed people to be blonde because the gene for hair colour is more frequently associated with the gene for eye colour.
