I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the third option. The liquid, most likely would belong the group of lipids since this substance is immiscible with water or does not mic with water. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

The fact that they do not dissolve shows that it is a lipid. This is further supported by the fact that the liquid remains collect to form a giant droplet. This occurs as oil/lipids are hydrophobic and thus tend to collect in clumps.

Mendel carried out his research on garden peas. You should remember that he used seven pairs of traits. Modern geneticists have
Goshia [24]

Answer:

A. the two genes on chromosome 1 are more than 50 mu apart.

Explanation:

Two or more genes present on the same chromosomes are the linked genes. Linked genes do not assort independently and do not exhibit crossing over. Therefore, the linkage of genes results in deviations from Mendel's law of independent assortment. However, if the linked genes are present far from each other on the same chromosome, they may exhibit crossing over.

The greater the distance between the linked genes, the higher are the chances of crossing over. Crossing over of linked genes would result in some of the progeny to have the new gene combinations as it occurs during an independent assortment of two genes. Therefore, Mendel observed an independent assortment of two genes present together on chromosome 1 since they were present far apart from each other (more than 50 mu apart).
