Answer:

20.3%

Explanation:

Given that:

An AAbb strain is crossed to an aaBB strain

i.e.

                   AAbb      ×      aaBB

gametes       Ab                   aB

For F₁

generation;  

If the resulting progeny are now self-crossed.

We know that the genetic distance between these two genes on the same chromosome is said to be 10 cM.

i.e. the recombinant gene = 10%; Hence, the parental gene will be (100 - 10)% = 90%

Ab ×   aB  =   Aa    AB      ab     Bb

From above; the parental gene;

Ab and   aB = 90% with each being 45%

i.e. Ab = 45%   and aB = 45%

while the recombinants genes are:

AB and ab = 10%

i.e. AB = 5%  and ab = 5%

Finally; the percentage of aaBB is = aB% ×  aB% × 100%

the percentage of aaBB is = 0.45 × 0.45 × 100%

the percentage of aaBB is = 20.25%  ≅ 20.3%

How many protons are there in the nucleus of an atom with an atomic number of 15
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

15 protons

Explanation:

In a neutral atom (not an ion or isotope) the amount of protons will be the same as the atomic number and the number of electrons.

An ion will have different electron values.

An isotope will have a different number of neutrons and a different atomic mass.

Dominant and recessive genes effect on phenotype
marysya [2.9K]

Dominant is the first gene variant in a phenotype from the two alleles of a gene and recessive has effect on the third allele of a phenotype.

Explanation:

The genetic phenomenon of masking of chromosome with one variant of allele or predominating  the impact of one gene on its chromosomal copy is Dominance.  In this phenomenon the first variant of gene is known as ‘dominant’ and the second one is ‘recessive’.  

This phenomenon is not inherited by phenotype, it has a relative effect on two alleles of a gene where one is dominant on other and the recessive is on third allele. Dominant allele has functional protein but recessive does not have it.
