Answer:

Linked Genes Violate the Law of Independent Assortment. Although all of Mendel's pea characteristics behaved according to the law of independent assortment, we now know that some allele combinations are not inherited independently of each other.

Mendel studied the transmission of genes in peas(pisum sativum) that were placed on different chromosomes. During meiosis there are two types of recombinations that make sure the offspring is different from the parent. First intrachromosomial recombination (crossing-over)where genetic material is exchanged between chromosomes. And interchromosomial recombination when homologous chromosomes are separated.

In Mendel's experiments only interchromosomial recombination was considered, but when Thomas Hunt Morgan experimented with Drosophilla Melanogaster he didn't get the same results because he focused on genes that were placed on the same chromosome. In this situation crossing over influenced the results.

slava [35]

Answer:regulation of RNA processing When a eukaryotic gene is transcribed in the nucleus.

Explanation:

the primary transcript (freshly made RNA molecule) isn't yet considered a messenger RNA. ... The pre-mRNA has to go through some modifications to become a mature mRNA molecule that can leave the nucleus and be translated.

What are the advantages and disdadvantages of dams that are changing the flow of water?

BigorU [14]

Explanation:

Advantages :

1}These are the main source of power generation.

2}These projects control the floods because water can be stored in them. These projects have converted many, 'rivers of sorrows' into 'rivers of boon'.

3}These projects are the main source of irrigation and also help in conserving soil.

Disadvantages:

1}Dams also fragment rivers making it difficult for aquatic fauna to migrate for spawning, i.e, to produce eggs.

2}It resulted in the displacement of local communities.

3}The multipurpose projects induced earthquakes, caused waterborne diseases.
