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

Cancer is best described as a rapid growth of cells within an enclosed membrane. tumors that cause death. an infectious disease
kykrilka [37]
Cancer is an abnormal and uncontrolled multiplication of cells.  
<span>Cancer also involves abnormal cell growth with the potential to spread to other parts of the body via blood and to form metastasis. Cancer cells avoid apoptosis (programmed cell death), have the limitless number of cell divisions and promote blood vessel construction. There are more than 100 types of cancers that affect humans with different signs and symptoms and with many different causes. </span>
