E. coli strain B is doubly infected with two rII mutants of phage T4. 0.2 ml of a 108 dilution of the progeny is plated on E. co

li B and 0.1 ml of a 104 dilution of the progeny is plated on E. coli K. 16 plaques appeared on strain B, 400 on strain K. Calculate the recombination frequency between these two mutations.

To Find :

The recombination frequency between these two mutations.

Solution :

Formula of calculating recombination frequency is :

R.F = \text{Number of mutations}\times \dfrac{\text{number of k plaques} \times D.F }{\text{Volume used}}\times \dfrac{Volume'}{\text{Number of B plaques} \times D.F' }}

Putting all given values in above equation, we get :

R.F = \dfrac{2\times 400\times 0.2 \times 10^4}{16\times 0.1\times 10^8}\\\\R.F = 0.01

Therefore, the recombination frequency between these two mutations is 0.01 or 1 %.

If water molecules inside and outside of a cell became non polar , how would the transport of materials in and out of the cell b
postnew [5]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The water will move in and out freely. The material transport which is due to the water transport will be affected.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Water is a partially polar molecules. Many ionic compounds and ions travel inside and outside the cell due to attachment with water molecule.
  • As well as water movement is controlled due to its polar nature through cell membrane. and the cytoplasm and outer environment is separate due to non polar cell membrane.
  • If the water become non polar then the movement through cell membrane will be easy for water. And the molecules dissolved in water will also be transported uncontrollably.

Answer:

Mendel's law of independent assortment

Explanation:

Gregor Mendel is a really important figure in genetics, his work on pea plants provided us with many of the fundamentals of genetics that we still have today!

Mendel proposed 3 laws:

1. The law of dominance - this law states that where there are two different alleles (heterozygous) the organism will always express the dominant trait over the recessive trait

2. The law of segregation - this law states that offspring will inherit one allele from each parent, because allele pairs separate in the process of meiosis, such that each gamete contains 1 allele of each trait. When the zygote is formed, it contains an allele from each parent.

3. The law of independent assortment - this law states that traits are independent from one another at the time of gamete formation. The genes are segregated separately from one another, as the presence of one does not impact the presence of another.

This example shows that all combinations of the height and color allele are possible, and therefore nicely demonstrates the law of independent assortment

The two are potassium and rubidium. Why? Na is an alkali metal. As you go down the metals become more reactive. 
Calcium has 20 protons. Why? The atomic # is 20 (the one at the top).
It has 20 neutrons. Why? The atomic mass (the number on the bottom) is ~40, ignoring electron mass. 40- 20 protons = 20 neutrons. 
It has 20 electrons. 
Why? The # of protons and electrons is the same. Ions aren't on the periodic table.
Please mark brainliest if I helped you!
