Now, suppose that the three tomato genes from Part A did not assort independently, but instead were linked to one another on the

same chromosome. Would you expect the phenotypic ratio in the offspring to change? If so, how?Which statement best predicts the results of the cross MmDdPp x mmddpp assuming that all three genes are linked?a. Lack of independent assortment means that you cannot predict the frequencies of phenotypes in the offspring.b. All eight possible phenotypes would occur in equal numbers in the offspring (1:1:1:1:1:1:1:1).c. All eight possible phenotypes could occur, but a greater proportion of the offspring would have the parental phenotypes.d. Only the parental phenotypes could possibly occur in the offspring.

Answer:

c. All eight possible phenotypes could occur, but a greater proportion of the offspring would have the parental phenotypes

Explanation:

When genes are linked they do not assort independently. Instead, the alleles on the parental chromosome will have a tendency to migrate together to the same pole of the cell. To produce gametes with genotypes different than the parentals crossing over must happen between the genes of homologous chromosomes during meiosis. However, recombination is a rare event, so the recombinant gametes will be less frequent than the parentals (those that arise when no recombination occurs between genes) and for that reason a greater proportion of the offspring will have parental phenotypes.

In the energy profile of a reaction, the species that exists at the maximum on the curve is called the __________.
Gnesinka [82]
It is called the transition state species. They are a bit of a hybrid, or a halfway point between the structure of the reactants' structures and products' structures. Bonds in the transition state can be partially formed and are represented by a dotted line.

Hypothesize why DNA replication has such accuracy
andrew-mc [135]
DNA replication has such accuracy varies. There are many DNA polymerases/repair enzymes that synthesize/repair DNA. Some are more frequent than others. The error frequency ranges between 1 to per 10,000 base pairs to 1 to per 10,000,000 base pairs, depends on the enzyme

How might an individual's own cells lead to false verdicts of guilt.
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

Through a circumstance known as "secondary transfer DNA", or "Touch DNA".

Explanation:

Most times when a crime is committed, DNA samples are obtained from surfaces in the scene where the crime was committed. There is a very huge possibility of picking up the DNA of someone who was never at the scene of the crime and this is a result of a condition known as Touch DNA.

Because we touch several objects which can be moved to different locations and touch people who are also always mobile, our DNA cells can find their ways to a crime scene where we had never physically been to. This can lead to false verdicts of guilt.
