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

mapped the genes for Mendel's pairs of traits. Two of them are on chromosome 1, yet when Mendel carried out a dihybrid cross using these genes, his results led him to the conclusion that they assorted independently. This makes sense if:A. the two genes on chromosome 1 are more than 50 mu apart.B. the two genes on chromosome 1 are very close together.C. the two genes on chromosome 1 are at least 20 mu apart.D. the two genes on chromosome 1 never recombine.

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).

Nimfa-mama [501]

Active muscles demand huge amounts of oxygen, and the circulatory system works hard to provide it. Blood carries oxygen to the muscles. When the body is at rest, blood carries nutrients to the muscles so that they can repair and rebuild themselves. Blood also carries away the waste products that hard-working muscles produce, back out through the lungs to be filtered.

That is the cell membrane. Think of it as a gate around a city, that is how I remember it. The city is the cell, and the cell membrane is the gate that "protects" the city, and controls what can enter and exit.

Mumz [18]

Answer:

The trait is Y-linked

Explanation:

The only plausible explanation behind the inheritance pattern shown by the porcupine trait is that it is <u>Y-linked</u>.

<em><u>Y-linked traits are limited to the Y chromosome only</u></em><em>, a sex chromosome that is peculiar to only the male gender. Chromosomally, females are XX while males are XY. Hence, only the male gender has the genetic capacity to inherit the porcupine trait. This is why only the sons of Edward Lambert, and never the daughters, exhibited the trait. </em>
