Cerci (abdominal appendages)

Biology
1 answer:
Simora [160]2 years ago
6 0

Answer: Cerci (singular cercus) are paired appendages on the rear-most segments of many arthropods, ... In basal arthropods, such as silverfish, the cerci originate from the eleventh abdominal segment.

Explanation: Hope this helps

Researchers believe that in a fish species, individuals with the recessive genotype aa are predisposed to disease. Homozygous do
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

The homozygous dominant phenotype is higher than expected, indicating that evolution has occurred.

Explanation:

At the start there are 200 fishes in the pond, 100 of them are AA(50%) and 100 of them are aa(50%). Using the Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium equation we can say that the gene frequency is

A=0.5

a=0.5

With those frequency, the expected percentage of offspring with dominant genotype will be:

AA= 0.5 * 0.5 = 0.25 = 25%

The number of homozygous dominant found is 35% which is higher than expected  (25%). Higher homozygous dominant frequency than expected means the Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium is changed. In this case, evolution probably the cause that shifts the gene frequency.

Two autosomal genes, J and K, are 60 map units apart. You perform the following testcross: J K / j k x j k / j k. At what freque
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

  • J K / j k = 20%
  • j k / j k = 20%
  • J k / j k = 30%
  • j K / j k = 30%                

Explanation:

To calculate the recombination frequency, we have to know that 1% of recombinations = 1 map unit = 1cm. And that the maximum recombination frequency is always 50%.

The map unit is the distance between the pair of genes for which every 100 meiotic products, one of them results in a recombinant one.

So, en the exposed example:

  • J and K are autosomal genes
  • J and K are separated by 60 M.U.
  • 60 M.U. means that there is 60% of recombination.

Cross)             J K / j k                    x                  j k / j k

Gametes) JK  Parental                                     jk, jk, jk, jk

                jk   Parental                                  

                Jk   Recombinant                          

                 jK   Recombinant

One map unit equals 1% of recombination frequency. This means that every 100 meiotic products, one of them is a recombinant one.

1 M.U. -------------- 1% recombination

60 M.U. ------------ 60% recombination

                              30% Jk  +  30% jK

100 M.U. - 60 M.U. = 40 M.U.

40M.U.--------------40 % Parental (Not recombinant)

                            20% JK   +   20% jk

Punnet Square)           JK       jk      Jk      jK

                          jk     JK/jk   jk/jk   Jk/jk   jK/jk

J K / j k = 20%

j k / j k = 20%

J k / j k = 30%

j K / j k = 30%
