Explain how the independent alignment of homologs, and also crossing-over during the first meiotic division, each contribute to
BartSMP [9]

Answer: Homologous chromosomes are randomly distributed to daughter cells, this means different chromosomes segregate independently of each other. And they exchange segments of DNA during crossing over. This recombination creates genetic diversity because genes from each parent are exchanged.

Explanation:

Meiosis is a type of cell division that produces gamete cells, which are sex cells (egg and sperm)

Chromosomes that form a pair and are found together are called homologous chromosomes, and they are inherited from each parent. During prophase of meiosis I, the homologous chromosomes exchange segments of DNA in a process called crossing over. This recombination creates genetic diversity because genes from each parent are exchanged. <u>It results in new combinations of genes on each chromosome.</u>

After that, during the anaphase of meiosis I, the two chromosomes line up on the equatorial plane of the cell. Then, they are separated and each will go to a new daughter cell. So homologous chromosomes are randomly distributed to daughter cells, <u>this means different chromosomes segregate independently of each other.</u>

The issue of high cholesterol can sometimes run in families. If an individual has two normal alleles, then he is phenotypically
statuscvo [17]
In the case of the gene that determines high cholesterol in the blood, the two alleles express incomplete dominance.
What this means is that the dominant allele is not completely dominant over the recessive allele. If the allele was completely dominant, even one allele would be enough to determine the individual's trait as dominant. But in the case of incomplete dominance between the alleles, the heterozygous individuals that have one dominant and one recessive allele are an ''in between'' phenotype.

For this question, we will utilize a population of Martians that is in Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium. The dominant Martian phenotyp
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

d.0.48

Explanation:

When a population is in Hardy Weinberg equilibrium the <u>genotypic </u>frequencies are:

freq (AA) = p²

freq (Aa) = 2pq

freq (aa) = q²

<em>p</em> is the frequency of the dominant <em>A</em> allele and <em>q</em> is the frequency of the recessive <em>a</em> allele.

In this population of 100 individuals, 84 martians have the dominant phenotype and 16 have the recessive phenotype.

Therefore:

q²=16/100

q² = 0.16

q=√0.16

q = 0.4

And p+q=1, so:

p = 1 - q

p = 1-0.4

p = 0.6

The frequency of heterozygotes is:

freq (Aa) = 2pq = 2 × 0.4 × 0.6

freq (Aa) = 0.48
