Elsa213:

Hmm, I'm not really good at Biology, but I can try to help. o: If I understand this correctly..: 43 RW 7 Rw 9 rW 41 rw

Elsa213:

Now... What is the question? xD

Elsa213:

@umm Help meh. <.<

Elsa213:

Du world yew dew dis? e.e

Elsa213:

Assume you are performing a cross between a plant that is heterozygous for the dominant traits red flowers and wrinkled seeds, with a plant that is homozygous for the recesive traits white flowers and smooth seeds. Assume the allelesare R for red flowers, r for white flowers, W for wrinkled seed, and w for smooth seeds. The offspring of this cross show the following phenotypes: 43 red flowers and wrinkled seeds, 7 red flowers and smooth seeds, 9 white flowers and wrinkled seeds, 41 white flowers and smooth seeds. What are the traits of the RECOMBINANT offspring in terms of flower color and seed shape? Explain how you know that these offspring are recombinant. What alleles would you expect to see in the individual chromosomes of each parent before and after crossing-over takes place? What is the recombination frequency? What is the ditance between the genes in map units?

Sarah10:

wow lol

Elsa213:

@umm I think that is big enough, right? o:

Sarah10:

XD

umm:

LOL Yes

umm:

The traits of the recombinant offspring in terms of flower color and seed shape: Red, smooth White, wrinckled These are recombinants because they are different with their parents. The genes are the same but they don't share the same alleles as parents. The number of recombinants is always less than the number of parental types. Genotype of parents: RrWw (red , wrinckled) rrww (white , smooth) after crossing over : Rrww rrWw (these two are the genotypes of recombinants) recombination frequency = # recombinants / # total progeny = 7+9 / 43+41+7+9 = 0.16 the genes are 16 m.u apart

Sarah10:

thank you !! <3

umm:

You're welcome! Cx

Elsa213:

Umm is so shmert. <3 ;u;

Sarah10:

What alleles would you expect to see in the individual chromosomes of each parent before and after crossing-over takes place? do you knoe this one ?

Sarah10:

my pc is so laggy i have to reload like 100 times

Sarah10:

anyways thank you both !!

umm:

You're welcome!!

Elsa213:

Pssh, it was nothing. ;p If it weren't for me, Umm wouldn't have helped and added knowledge. You're welcome. ;3 Just kidding~ c'x

Sarah10:

lol
