Hi there!

<u>Linkage</u> is the term applied when two genes fail to assort independently.

<h3> <u>RESULT</u> ?</h3>

☆ The result is that <em>the parental traits will be maintained</em>.

☆ Also, the linked genes sit close together on a chromosome, making them likely to be inherited together (left).

<h3> <u>IMPORTANCE</u></h3>

When the chromosomal location for a disease phenotype has been established, then the genetic <em>linkage </em><em>s</em><em>c</em><em>r</em><em>u</em><em>t</em><em>i</em><em>n</em><em>y</em><em> </em><em>helps determine whether the disease phenotype is only caused by mutation</em> in a single gene or mutations in other genes, giving rise to an identical or similar phenotype.

Hope that helps!

At which of the following temperatures is the speed of a given chemical reaction the fastest?
Rashid [163]
There are many factors that affect the rate of chemical reactions and temperature is one of them.
Typically, the higher the temperature of a chemical reaction the faster the reaction occur, that is, the temperature and the rate of chemical reaction are directly related. This is due to the fact that increasing the temperature of the reaction increases the kinetic energy of the reacting particles and thus they are able to move faster and the reaction also occur faster. Thus, from the options given, the correct answer will be D [40 degree], this is because, it is the highest temperature out of all the options given.

These six essential nutrients are nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, sulfur and calcium. The cool thing about these key nutrients is that they help create new cells, which then organize into plant tissue. Without these nutrients, growth and survival would not occur.

What type of cells, sex cells or somatic cells ,are produced by this process
pogonyaev

Answer:

Human sex cells are produced by a two-part cell division process called meiosis.

Explanation:

Through a sequence of steps, the replicated genetic material in a parent cell is distributed among four daughter cells. Meiosis produces gametes with one-half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell
