The answer is
Recombination is an exchange between homologous chromosomes (e.g. chr 1 from mom x chr 1 from dad). Since it usually happens during meiosis, these strands are later separated. Recombination can be unequal or equal, but it's usually equal, and unequal crossovers are generally quite small (but a common source of addition/deletion).
Reciprocal translocation refers to an exchange between different chromosomes (e.g. chr 1 x chr 2). It is considered a large scale mutation (resulting in a large addition to one chromosome, and a large deletion in another).

Answer:
A. transmission genetics
B. population genetics
C. molecular genetics
D. genomics
E. molecular genetics
Explanation:
Transmission genetics can be defined as the study of the mechanisms involved in the inheritance of genetic material by offspring from parents. This discipline started with the discovery of inherited characteristics in pea plants by Mendel (1865).
Population genetics is a subdiscipline of genetics that studies genetic variation within and between populations. Population genetics is an area that explains how allele and genotypic frequencies change across time, thereby this subdiscipline is closely linked to evolutionary biology.
Genomics is a broad area of genetics that studies the function, evolution, structure, function, mapping and comparison of genomes (i.e., the whole genetic material contained in each cell of a given organism). This discipline aims at understanding entire gene pools. Genomics includes different research areas including structural genomics, functional genomics, epigenomics and metagenomics.
Molecular genetics is a sub-discipline of genetics that studies the mechanisms involved in preserving the genetic material (i.e., DNA and RNA), and to understand how the structure and expression of the genetic material influence the observed variation among organisms.
Answer:
D) Each parent contributes one allele for this trait
Explanation:
All traits of individuals are determined by specific genes of that trait. For example, there is a certain gene for height, certain gene for eye color, face shape etc.
Genes are the units of hereditary, and for every trait there is one gene in every organism. However, one gene is present in two alternative forms called alleles in an organism. For example: There is a trait height, a person has two alleles for the height gene, one allele is for short height, and other allele is for tall height. The trait of tallness is dominant over the trait of shortness, Therefore, this person will have tall height.
Now the alleles are transmitted from parents to offspring. Every parent contributes one allele for a specific trait, in the process and transmit it to offspring.
The allele which will be dominant will be expressed while the one that is recessive will e suppressed.
Therefore, option D is the right answer.
Hope it helps!
