Answer:
This disorder is caused by mutations in either of two different genes; one of these genes is linked to the DNA marker locus and the other gene is not.
Explanation:
A gene marker (also known as a molecular marker) is defined as a particular DNA sequence that has a specific physical location on a given chromosome. The gene markers are always physically linked with genes of interest, thereby they are useful for identifying patients affected by a given disease and/or a particular phenotypic trait. In this case, in the first study, genetic variation of the marker has been shown to be useful to map one <em>locus</em> that is associated with the disease phenotype. However, in the second study, a second <em>locus</em> that is not linked to the marker can segregate independently, thereby showing different results from the first study (in this case, it is imperative to develop a new genetic linkage analysis to discover genetic markers linked to the second gene, which is also responsible for the disease phenotype).
<span>#1) In order for this to occur, which of the following statements must be true?
Answer: During cellular respiration, the bonds of food molecules are broken, so energy can be released to fuel other cellular processes. In order for this to occur New compounds with lower-energy bonds must be formed when the high-energy bonds in food molecules are broken. Therefore the correct answer is choice (A).
