Genes a, b, and c are known to be in that linear order in an organism. A testcross is done that yields 20 double crossover proge

ny out of a total of 1000 offspring. Assume that there is no interference.
(a) Type a genetic map showing the distances between these genes. Is there more than one possible map?
(b) What would the distances be if there was 10% interference?
(c) What number of double crossover progeny would be expected if there was interference of 15%?

Answer:

Explanation:

The observed frequency of the double crossovers (DCOs) is 20/1000, or 0.02. If there is no interference then this will be the same as the expected, which is just the product of the single crossover frequencies, that is, SCO frequency (a-b) x SCO freq. (b-c) = 0.02.

(a) Any combination of map distances whose product (a-b) x (b-c) = 0.02 is possible. However, three are most likely:

a 20 mu b 10 mu c

a 10 mu b 20 mu c

a 14.14 mu b 14.14 mu c

(b) The distances would be exactly the same.

(c) The expected number of DCO progeny would be 17.

nydimaria [60]
Spontaneous miscarriage in the first trimester is related to Chromosomal defects in the fetus. An estimated 15 to 20 percent of known pregnancies end in miscarriage, the loss of a pregnancy before the 20th week. Upto 70 percent of first-trimester miscarriages, and 20 percent of second-trimester miscarriages, are caused by chromosomal anomalies/abnormalities in the fertilized egg. Most often, it means that the egg or sperm had wrong number of chromosomes, and consequently the fertilized egg can't develop normally.

A client with severe burns and injuries from a bomb blast is admitted in the emergency unit. which triaging priority is preferab
mafiozo [28]
The patient should be triaged in "critical", color coded as red. This is because a bomb blast can lead to multiple gross organ damages such as fractures (pelvic fractures most commonly produce the greatest amount of internal hemorrhage which can lead to shock), liver and spleen rupture that can cause hemorrhagic shock, and burns that can predispose the patient to fluid lose and electrolyte imbalance which then, if untreated, will lead to kidney and cardiac compromise. 

Other triaging priorities for other patients include urgent and non-urgent cases.

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

If you don't continue an accurate antibiotic treatment, compliting it course, you encourage development of antibiotic resistance in bacteria, which can become difficult to treat with the same antibiotic or cause a bacterial regain and cause a severe infection. It can also become life -threatening in the future leading to difficult results in treatment with the same antibiotic or others.
