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.

Hypersecretion of prolactin from the anterior pituitary gland causes the condition of ________. dwarfism postpartum hemorrhage g
kolbaska11 [484]

Hypersecretion of the population from the anterior pituitary gland causes the condition of galactorrhea.

Prolactin is another name is called luteotropin and its main function is to enable mammals mostly female to produce milk. The pituitary gland secretes it in response to mating, estrogen treatment, ovulation, nursing and eating.

The pituitary gland is attached to the hypothalamus by a short stalk. The pituitary gland has two major parts.

(i)                  An anterior lobe

(ii)                Posterior lobe.

The pituitary gland is controlled by hormones and neurons that comes in the hypothalamus where it acts as a link between brain and endocrine system, and hypothalamus is the endocrine gland itself. Hypothalamus has neurons which regulate secretion of anterior lobe hormones by secreting inhibit and releasing  hormones. Every hormone produced by anterior lobe has a releasing hormone.

Prolactin and growth hormones have inhibiting hormone. Releasing hormone helps in stimulating production and it releases hormones from the anterior lobe.

In the example below the scientific method is used to solve an everyday problem. Match each component to the appropriate step in
joja [24]

Answer:

1. My toaster doesn't toast my bread. --> Observation

2. Why doesn't my toaster work? ---> ask questions

3. There is something wrong with the electrical outlet. ---> Hypothesis

4. If there is something wrong with the outlet, my coffeemaker also won't work when plugged into it. ---> Prediction

5. I plug my coffeemaker into the outlet. ---> Experiments

6. My coffeemaker works. ---> Result of experiment

<em>Note: The question is missing some parts. The complete question is given below.</em>

<em>In the example below the scientific method is used to solve an everyday problem. Match each component to the appropriate step in the scientific method:</em>

<em>1. My toaster doesn't toast my bread.</em>

<em>2. Why doesn't my toaster work?</em>

<em>3. There is something wrong with the electrical outlet</em>

<em>4. If there is something wrong with the outlet, my coffeemaker also won't work when plugged into it.</em>

<em>5. I plug my coffeemaker into the outlet.</em>

<em>6. My coffeemaker works.</em>

Explanation:

The scientific method involves the following; observations, ask questions, form a hypothesis, make predictions, design experiment to test the hypothesis, obtain results, analyze results, draw conclusions.

1. My toaster doesn't toast my bread is an observation made by the person.

2. The person then proceeds to asks questions based on the observation; Why doesn't my toaster work?

3. The next step involves making a hypothesis to try to explain the observation; "There is something wrong with the electrical outlet"

4. A prediction is then made, which is an expected outcome if the hypothesis is correct; "If there is something wrong with the outlet, my coffeemaker also won't work when plugged into it".

5. Next, an experiment is conducted to test the hypothesis whether it is true or not; "I plug my coffeemaker into the outlet".

6. Results are obtained from the experiment which in this case is, "My coffeemaker works". The result is then analyzed to see whether it supports the initial hypothesis or not. Depending on the results, new hypothesis is made and further experiments conducted until a conclusion is reached.
