Assume that the genes for tan body and bare wings are 15 map units apart on chromosome II in Drosophila. If a tan-bodied, bare-w

inged female was mated to a wild type male and the resulting F1 phenotypically wild type females were mated to tan-bodied, bare- winged males. Of 1000 offspring, what would be the expected number of flies that are tan but have normal wings

Answer:

WILD TYPE= 425;

TAN-BARE= 425;

TAN= 75;

BARE= 75

Explanation:

Fifteen map units apart implies that 15% of the offspring are products of recombination.

Out of 1000 offsprings, therefore 15% of 1000= 0.15 × 1000=150

150 offsprings are products of recombination.

100-15 =85%

Therefore, 85% of the offspring are parental.

So, if tan-bodied, ware-winged female was mated with wild-type male resulting in F1 phenotypically wild-type females were mated to tan-bodied, bare-winged males.

The expected number of offsprings that are tanned but have normal wings would be:

Wild type= 50% of 850

0.50 × 850 = 425

Tan-bare= 50% of 850

0.50 × 850 = 425

tan= 50% of 150

0.50×150= 75

Bare= 50% of 150

0.50×150=75

Andreyy89

Answer:

Explanation:Twenty fruit flies are placed in each of four glass tubes. The tubes are sealed. Tubes I and II are partially covered with black paper; Tubes III and IV are not covered. The tubes are placed as shown. Then they are exposed to blue light for five minutes. The number of flies in the uncovered part of each tube is shown in the drawing.

These data show that these flies respond to (respond means move to or away from):

Cinnabar colored eyes (cn) and reduced bristles (rd) are autosomal recessive genes and lobe shaped eyes (L) is an autosomal domi
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

The correct genotypic notation for a wild type with phenotypic characteristics: red eyes, long bristle and round eyes will be any of CNRDll, CnRdl, CnRDl or CNRdl if c, n, r and d are capable of independent assortment and CNRDl if they cannot.

Explanation:

The eye color and bristle size is coordinated by either recessive cn and dominant CN or Cn genes. The wild type in questions has red color eyes, which is a dominant trait coordinated by CN or Cn if c and n can undergo assortment independently or just CN if they cannot. The second characteristics of the wild type is long bristle. We were told that reduced bristle is coordinated by recessive rd Gene. Then the long bristle in our specimen wild type will have dominant genotypic notification of RD or Rd, depending if r and d can undergo assortment independently. The last trait is a round eyes, which is a recessive trait controlled by recessive allele l. Therefore, the combined characteristics of red eye color, long bristle and round eyes shape of the wild type will be CNRDl or any of CNRDll, CnRdl, CnRDl CNRdl depending on the segregation pattern of c, n, r and d.

Japan is the leading producer of farm-raised shrimp, offering a lower price than Americans who farm or catch shrimp for a living
il63 [147K]
The most likely answer is
D)Decreased number of fish species who use the estuaries. 

The Japanese model for shrimp farming in estuaries basically involves converting estuary areas into shrimp farms, isolating these areas and dedicating them solely to the farming of shrimp. This excludes other fish species from areas that were previously the environment in which they lived.

A postsynaptic potential is a graded potential that is the result of a neurotransmitter released into the synapse between two ne
Ksju [112]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

When the resting potential of the membrane is changed, the membrane becomes either more negative inside or less negative. This small deviation from the resting potential is called graded potential. A graded potential occurs when a stimulus triggers opening or closing of the mechanically gated  or ligand-gated channels present in the plasma membrane.

For example, the presynaptic neuron releases neurotransmitters in response to a nerve impulse. The neurotransmitter binds to receptors present in the plasma membrane of the postsynaptic neuron and triggers the opening of the ion channels to allow the inflow of particular ions to flow. The flow of ions changes the voltage across the membrane. This change in membrane voltage is a postsynaptic potential and is a type of graded potential.
