Climate , temperature , and other organisms
Answer:
The correct answer is- law of independent assortment
Explanation:
Law of independent assortment says that assortment of one gene pair is independent of assortment of other gene pair which means each contrasting gene pair bears no association with other pairs of contrasting character and behave and segregate independently.
This allows the combination of new characters in the offspring. So it helps in increasing the genetic variability in the gene pool. Therefore law of independent assortment tells that inheritance of one trait had no effect on the inheritance of another.
Answer:
C.
Explanation:
This is because cellular respiration produces C02, which photosynthesis uses.
Answer:
Explanation:
The homozygous recessive individual can only produce 1 type of gamete (<em>aabb</em>).
The heterozygous individual can produce 8 types of gametes, of which 2 are parental and the rest are recombinant.
Genetic distance (m.u.) = Frequency of Recombination (%)
If the distance between genes A and B is 50 m.u., 50% of the gametes produced by the heterozygous individual, and therefore the offspring, will have recombinant phenotypes.
Without knowing that the genes are located on the same chromosomes, I'd think they are on different chromosomes, because you would get the same result: 50% recombinant offspring.
Whenever the genes on the same chromosome are separated by at least 50 m.u., or they are in different chromosomes, crossing over between them can happen with no restrictions and they will behave as independent of one another.
Complete question:
A female is born with attached earlobes, which is a recessive phenotype. Which of the following statements about her parents must be true?
a. neither has the codominant allele.
b. Her father has an inactivated allele.
c. Both parents have the recessive allele.
d. Her mother carries the dominant allele.
Answer:
c. Both parents have the recessive allele.
Explanation:
A recessive trait is expressed in homozygous recessive genotypes only. If a female expresses the attached earlobe phenotype, she should be homozygous for the allele since the attached earlobe is a recessive trait. If allele "a" gives attached earlobe phenotype in homozygous genotype, the genotype of the female would be "aa". This means that the female has got one copy of the allele "a" from her either parents. Therefore, both her parents should have at least one copy of the recessive allele "a".
