Answer:

the gene for yellow body and the gene for forked bristles

Explanation:

The two genes that will have the highest recombination frequency are the gene for yellow body and the gene for forked bristles.

<em>Gene recombination refers to the exchange of genetic materials between different gene-containing regions (loci) on the same chromosome or between two or more independent chromosomes. A linkage map shows the frequency of recombination between genes.</em>

Generally, on a linkage map, when two loci are close to one another on the same chromosome, the frequency of recombination of the genes would be less than that of two loci that are further apart. In other words, the closer the loci, the lower the frequency of gene recombination and vice versa.

<em>In this case, the distance between the genes for yellow body and tan body is 27.5 map units, yellow body and sable body is 43 map units, yellow body and forked bristles is 56.7 map units. </em><u><em>The genes for yellow and forked bristles are the furthest to each other with 66.7 map units and, as such, will have the highest recombination frequency. </em></u>

Plants can’t walk and animals can’t use the sun to make energy. agree/disagree? why?
Ivenika [448]

Agree

Explanation:

It is very correct that plants cannot walk and animals can't use energy from the sun.

Locomotion is the movement of body from one place to another.

The process by which plants manufacture their food using sunlight is called photosynthesis.

  • Plants are fixed, sessile and cannot move about.
  • Their root penetrate deep into the earth by which they derive their own nourishment.
  • Walking is one attribute of higher animals.
  • Manufacturing of food using sunlight is in the exclusive preserve of plants.

sasho [114]

Given:

The solution decreased by \dfrac{9}{8} ounces every hour for 5 hours.

Remaining solution at the end of the experiment = \dfrac{99}{8} ounces.

To find:

The initial amount of solution.

Solution:

Let the initial amount of the solution be x.

The solution decreased by \dfrac{9}{8} ounces every hour for 5 hours.

Total decreased amount  =\dfrac{9}{8}\times 5

                                          =\dfrac{45}{8}

Initial amount = Remining amount + Decreased amount of solution.

x=\dfrac{99}{8}+\dfrac{45}{8}

x=\dfrac{99+45}{8}

x=\dfrac{144}{8}

x=18

Therefore, the initial amount of solution is 18 ounces.
