The last time you saw the sisters pictured above, you considered how different protein molecules in their cells could lead to di

fferent traits. Now, you know that genes provide instructions for proteins that lead to traits. How could these sisters have ended up with different genes, leading to their different proteins and traits? Explain your ideas below.​

Answer:

recombination and independent segregation of chromosomes during meiosis  

Explanation:

Recombination and independent segregation of chromosomes represent the two most important meiotic mechanisms by which sisters from the same parents can inherit different gene variants and therefore look very different from each other:  

1- Independent assortment (segregation) of chromosomes: during meiosis, homologous chromosomes are randomly distributed in daughter cells (which will give rise to the gametes), and therefore separate independently of each other. It is for that reason that gametes have unique combinations of chromosomes, which increases genetic variation.

2- Recombination, also known as crossing over, refers to the exchange of chromosome segments between non-sister chromatids during meiosis. This mechanism is well-known to produce new gene variants (alleles) in the daughter cells. In consequence, recombination also increases the genetic variation of the resulting gametes that will produce offspring (in this case, different sisters).

<u>Explanation:</u>

Some important traits that influence the reproductive success of a flower include: the presence or absence of whorls, the fusion of organs to one another, and the overall symmetry of flowers.

In the process of reproduction in plants, the male and female gametes are produced and transfer of the male gametes to the female ovules occurs. This process is called as pollination. After pollination occurs, fertilization happens and the ovules grow into seeds within a fruit

Floral  zygomorphy confers a reproductive advantage to rare plants" as a result of the  enhanced pollination efficiency.

If an original cell has the genetic makeup AaSs. What would the genetic makeup of the daughter cells be?
Andrej [43]

<span>Due to DNA and Organelle Duplication that takes place during Interphase within a cell, during the splitting of a cell in Mitosis, the two daughter cells should have the exact same genetic and physical composition as the Parent Cell. so the daughter genetic make u p is also AaSs</span>
