Answer:

The probability that their first child will both be ab/ab = 41%.

Explanation:

<u>Available data:</u>

  • Two linked genes  (A) and (B) ⇒ 18 centiMorgans apart
  • Man ⇒  Aa Bb
  • Man´s father ⇒ AA BB
  • Woman ⇒ aabb

The recombination frequency is given by the distance between genes. We have to know that 1% of recombinations = 1 map unit = 1cm.

Recombination frequency = 0.18

Man: AaBb

Gametes) AB Parental

                 ab Parental

                 Ab Recombinant

                 aB recombinant

18 centi morgan = 18 % of <u>recombination</u> in total  

                            = % aB + % Ab  

                            = 9% aB + 9% Ab

       100% - 18% = 82% of <u>parental</u> in total  

                           = % of AB + % ab  

                           = 41% AB + 41% ab

The frequency for each gamete is:

AB 41%

ab 41%

Ab 9%

aB 9%

Cross: man x woman

Parental)          AaBb           x          aabb

Gametes) AB, Ab, aB, ab        ab, ab, ab, ab

Punnett square)     AB ( 41%)       Ab (9%)      aB (9%)       ab (41%)

                   ab      AaBb               Aabb          aaBb            aabb

                   ab      AaBb               Aabb          aaBb            aabb

                   ab      AaBb               Aabb          aaBb            aabb

                   ab      AaBb               Aabb          aaBb            aabb

F1) 41% of the progeny is expected to be AaBb

     9% of the progeny is expected to be Aabb

     9% of the progeny is expected to be aaBb

     41% of the progeny is expected to be aabb

siniylev [52]
This is known as aversion therapy. Here, a patient is concurrently exposed to a stimulus, typically an addiction, and some form of discomfort. The idea behind this is that the patient will associate the addiction with unpleasant experiences. In this way, it is hoped that the patient will overcome his/her addiction. This sort of therapy has taken many forms. The more common form is for example to paint unpleasant-tasting nail polish on one's nails to discourage nail chewing. More extreme forms include electric shock therapy.

Nearly all (98 percent) saline-water withdrawals were from surface water.

Another term for groundwater is "aquifer," although this term is usually used to describe water-bearing formations capable of yielding enough water to supply peoples' uses. Aquifers are a huge storehouse of Earth's water and people all over the world depend on groundwater in their daily lives.
