Which two genes are most likely to be affected by a crossing over event?
A. a pair of genes located adjacent to another on a chromosome
B. a pair of genes separated by a third gene on a chromosome
C. a pair of genes located at opposite ends of a chromosome
D. a pair of genes located on different chromosomes

Answers

Answer:

c

Explanation:

becuase a pair of genes located opposite ends on a chromosome

A pair of genes located adjacent to another on a chromosome are most likely to be affected by a crossing-over event (Option A).

Linked genes are genes located on the same chromosome.

Crossing over, also known as recombination, refers to the exchange of genetic material between non-sister chromatids during meiosis (Prophase I).

During crossing over, linked genes are separated to be recombined between non-sister chromatids, thereby increasing the genetic diversity of the resulting germinal (gamete) cells.

In conclusion, a pair of genes located adjacent to another on a chromosome are most likely to be affected by a crossing-over event (Option A).

I need help with dominant and recessive genes, it doesn't really make sense to me ​can sombody explain how it works?

Answers

Answer:

Dominant: the genes that are expressed/ shown

Recessive: the "hidden" genes

Explanation:

If one parent has a dominant gene for brown eyes and the other has a recessive gene for blue eyes, then the offspring will have brown eyes.

Hope this helps!

You can message me if you are still confused.

Explanation:

dominant genes will always appear before recessive ones, in order for recessive genes to appear, both copies of the gene have to be the recessive one tldr for this paragraph, think of dominant genes like jackets, and recessive ones like t shirts

an example

B=brown hair gene (dominant)

b=blond hair gene (recessive)

this is an example of 2 parents, with offspring

Bb Bb <-- both parents have a copy of brown and blond hair gene, but since dominant genes appear before recessive ones, they both have brown hair

now, lets look at their possible offspring genes

BB Bb Bb bb

in order, their hair color will be

brown, brown, brown, blond

see the last one? the only reason why that child is blond is because they don't have a brown hair gene tldr of this paragraph, recessive genes will only be present if both copies of the gene is the same

with the first example, lets say its a cold day. what would you wear, a jacket or a t shirt? a jacket, obviously

but what if you only had t shirts? then you would be forced to wear that and think about your poor freezing self...

pretend the T shirt is blond hair gene, and jacket is brown hair

and the closet only holds 2 clothes

2 domiant genes will do the same thing, brown hair

1 domiant gene and 1 recessive will use the domiant gene, since domiant genes get used first, like brown hair will show even though you have a copy of blond hair gene

2 recessive genes, and only then will the recessive show, like blond hair

Answer:

The process of exhalation occurs due to an elastic recoil of the lung tissue which causes a decrease in volume, resulting in increased pressure in comparison to the atmosphere; thus, air rushes out of the airway. There is no contraction of muscles during exhalation; it is considered a passive process.

Explanation:

Explanation:

This question is describing gene expression, which comprises of transcription and translation. Transcription is the process by which a DNA molecule is used as a template to synthesize a mRNA molecule while in translation, the mRNA is used to synthesize an amino acid sequence using a set of three nucleotide bases called CODON in the mRNA.

According to this question, the following DNA sequence is given: AGTCGCTATTAGCCG. The process of transcription will form the following mRNA sequence from this DNA sequence: UCAGCGAUAAUCGGC.

Translation will make use of the genetic code to produce the following amino acids. Note that, one codon e.g UCA encodes an amino acid (serine).

The amino acid sequence is: Serine-Alanine-Isoleucine-Isoleucine-Glycine.

UCA codes for Serine

GCG codes for Alanine

AUA codes for Isoleucine

AUC codes for Isoleucine

a critical period

Explanation:

In developmental psychology and developmental biology, a critical period is a maturational stage in the lifespan of an organism during which the nervous system is especially sensitive to certain environmental stimuli(Wikipedia). It is a time during early postnatal life when the development and maturation of functional properties of the brain, its 'plasticity', is strongly dependent on experience or environmental influences(Sengpiel, 2007).

The correct answer is - dandelion weeds adapted many tricks to reduce all other competitors as it is invasive species.

Explanation:

The dandelion is a successful weed. It's got a lot of adaption to eliminate or dominate other plants and weeds, such as ethylene gas released by its rosette of leaves that prevent other plants from growing near dandelion.

Seeds of dandelion also adapted seed dispersion tactic by seed-parachutes into the wind.  Dandelion weed does not require to be pollinated and rapidly increases their numbers. Dandelion has a taproot that goes deep into the soil, up to three feet down for water and nutrients.

Heterozygous Plants

Heterozygous Plants means those plants which have two different alleles that means One dominant allele (i.e. A here) and One recessive allele (i.e. a here). These Organisms inherit a different version from each parent. In a heterozygous genotype, the dominant allele overrules the recessive one.

If we look at the punnet square given in the attachment, the Box 1 and 3 have genotype Aa which is a HETEROZYGOUS DOMINANT PLANT while box 2 and 4 have a genotype aa which is a HOMO-ZYGOUS RECESSIVE PLANT thus the answer is Box 1 and 3
