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.

denpristay [2]

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

The concept of Hereditability is defined as the extent to which a certain genotype producing characteristics different to the mass genotype occur in a given population set.  

It general it refers to the inheritance of phenotype different than the general mass phenotype due to a varied or uncommon genotype.  

For instance, occurrence of diabetes is considered as a heritable disease because it can occur in upcoming generation if there exist a history of people suffering from diabetes

The one that is not an example of insitu protection is the botanical garden since the three others, ie national park, wildlife sanctuary and wildlife preserve are definitely insitu types because they result from simply designating areas that already exist naturally so that the animals and plants can live in a sense, at home.

solong [7]

Answer:

First, you breathe in oxygen through your trachea. The air travels down through the trachea to your lungs. Then your lungs transport the oxygen through your pulmonary artery to your heart. Then the heart transports the oxidized blood throughout your body. Then once the blood gives away all the oxygen your veins take the filtered blood through your pulmonary vein and back to your lungs to get oxidized again. I hope this helps
