Which of the following is not necessarily true of metapopulations?
Oxana [17]

Answer:

Option C, Each subpopulation is linked to all other subpopulations by dispersal.

Explanation:

Each sub-population with in a metapopulation is not only connected by the dispersal distance travelled by an organism but also by the distance between the patches on which two sub population live. There are several other factors that limitise the concept of connection of subpopulation by dispersal factor and these vulnerable factors are – properties of terrain between the patches and its adverse affect on the dispersal behaviour of dispersing agent/species.

Hence, option C is correct.

Three linked autosomal loci were studied in smurfs.
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

height -------- color --------- mood

           (13.2cM)      (14.5cM)

C=0.421

I = 0.579

Explanation:

We have the number of descendants of each phenotype product of the tri-hybrid cross.

Phenotype Number

  • pink, tall, happy            580
  • blue, dwarf, gloomy     601
  • pink, tall, gloomy         113
  • blue, dwarf, happy      107
  • blue, tall, happy              8
  • pink, dwarf, gloomy        6
  • blue, tall, gloomy          98
  • pink, dwarf, happy      101

Total number of individuals = 1614 = N

Knowing that the genes are linked, we can calculate genetic distances between them. First, we need to know their order in the chromosome, and to do so, we need to compare the phenotypes of the parental with the ones of the double recombinants. We can recognize the parental in the descendants because their phenotypes are the most frequent, while the double recombinants are the less frequent. So:

Parental)

  • Pink, tall, happy            580 individuals
  • Blue, dwarf, gloomy      601 individuals

Simple recombinant)

  • Pink Tall Gloomy           113 individuals
  • Blue, Dwarf, Happy       107 individuals
  • Blue Tall Gloomy             98 individuals
  • Pink Dwarf Happy          101 individuals

Double Recombinant)  

  • Blue Tall Happy                 8 individuals
  • Pink  Dwarf Gloomy           6 individuals  

Comparing them we realize that parental and double recombinant individuals differ in the position of the gene codifying for <u>color</u><u>.</u> They only change in the position of Blue and Pink. This suggests that the position of the color gene is in the middle of the other two genes, height and mood, because in a double recombinant only the central gene changes position in the chromatid.  

So, the alphabetic order of the genes is:

---- height ---- color ----- mood ----

Now we will call Region I to the area between Height and Color, and Region II to the area between Color and Mood.

Once established the order of the genes we can calculate distances between them, and we will do it from the central gene to the genes on each side. First We will calculate the recombination frequencies, and we will do it by region. We will call P1 to the recombination frequency between Height and color genes, and P2 to the recombination frequency between color and mood.

P1 = (R + DR) / N

P2 = (R + DR)/ N

Where: R is the number of recombinants in each region (the ones that have an intermediate phenotypic frequency), DR is the number of double recombinants in each region, and N is the total number of individuals.  So:

Region I

Tall------ Pink--------happy  (Parental) 580 individuals

Dwarf ---Pink------- Happy (Simple Recombinant) 101 individuals

Dwarf--- Pink-------Gloomy (Double Recombinant) 6 individuals

Dwarf----Blue-------Gloomy (Parental) 601 individuals

Tall ------Blue------- Gloomy (Simple Recombinant)  98 individuals

Tall ----- Blue------- Happy   (Double Recombinant) 8 individuals  

Region II

Tall------ Pink--------happy (Parental) 580 individuals

Tall-------Pink------- Gloomy (Simple Recombinant) 113 individuals

Dwarf----Pink------- Gloomy (Double Recombinant) 6 individuals

Dwarf----Blue-------Gloomy (Parental) 601 individuals

Dwarf ----Blue-------Happy (Simple Recombinant) 107 individuals

Tall ----- Blue------- Happy   (Double Recombinant) 8 individuals

In each region, the highlighted traits are the ones that suffered recombination.

  • P1 = (R + DR) / N

P1 = (101+6+98+8)/1614

P1 = 213/1614

P1 = 0.132    

  • P2= = (R + DR) / N

P2 = (113+6+107+8)/1614

P1 = 234/1614

P1 = 0.145

Now, to calculate the recombination frequency between the two extreme genes, height and mood, we can just perform addition or a sum:

  • P1 + P2= Pt

0.132 + 0.145 = Pt

0.277=Pt

The genetic distance will result from multiplying that frequency by 100 and expressing it in map units (MU). One centiMorgan (cM) equals one map unit (MU).  

The map unit is the distance between the pair of genes for which every 100 meiotic products, one results in a recombinant product.  

Now we must multiply each recombination frequency by 100 to get the genetic distance in map units:

GD1= P1 x 100 = 0.132 x 100 = 13.2 MU = 13.2 cM

GD2= P2 x 100 = 0.145 x 100 = 14.5 MU = 14.5 cM

GD3=Pt x 100 = 0.277 x 100 = 27.7 MU = 27.7 cM

To calculate the coefficient of coincidence, CC, we must use the next formula:

CC= observed double recombinant frequency/expected double recombinant frequency

Note:  

-observed double recombinant frequency=total number of observed double recombinant individuals/total number of individuals

-expected double recombinant frequency: recombination frequency in region I x recombination frequency in region II.

  • CC= ((6 + 8)/1614)/0.132x0.145

        CC=0.008/0.019

        CC=0.421

The coefficient of interference, I, is complementary with CC.

I = 1 - CC

I = 1 - 0.421

I = 0.579

Leokris [45]

Answer:

The answer is the flexibility of DNA.

Explanation:

The flexibility os DNA is what allows transcription factors at distant binding sites to do their job. The DNA loops like cooked spaghetti to bring far-off binding sites and transcription factors close to general transcription factor or mediator proteins.

Select the elements that are considered to have a high level of attraction for surrounding electrons:
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

Oxygen and nitrogen

Explanation:

Oxygen and nitrogen are very electronegative than any other element in the periodic table hence they have more tendency to attract an electron towards itself

In what stage does the skin blister allowing bacteria to enter the site of the pressure ulcer
dimaraw [331]
I think it is stage 2
At stage two, the skin breaks open, wears away, or forms an ulcer, which is usually tender and painful. The sore expands into deeper layers of the skin. It may appear as a scrape, blister, or a shallow crater in the skin. At times this stage looks like a blister filled with clear liquid. Also at this stage some skin may be damaged beyond repair or may die.
