I am not entirely sure about this. So maybe my response can help you find the answer a little better if my answer is not entirely right?
These last three questions are referring to everything you just worked on. So all you would have to do is refer back to your previous answers. Recall that the titles of the "part 1, 2, and 3" are titled "crossing beak color and tail-feather length", "crossing beak color and feather color", and "mapping tail-feather length and feather color".
1.List the distances between each pair of genes:
beak color and tail-feather length: 20 MU
beak color and feather color: 16 MU
tail-feather length and feather color: 4 MU
2.Which two alleles are the farthest apart?
(the one that is 20 MU apart) Y and L
3.Which two alleles are the closest together?
(the ones that are 4 MU apart) L and B
Answer:
A
Explanation:
If you have ever seen a punnett square, you should know already that usually, they have 4 (or more) little boxes with two of the same letter. (ex. EE, ee, or Ee in every box). This predicts what the genotype of the offspring would be, based on the parents' genotypes. Pedigree charts track inherited traits, whether that be a disease or health.
Answer:
2.Less than 73% of the populations would have only one allele present.
Explanation:
The two alleles chosen do not affect the fitness of flies in the lab environment, so Kerr and Wright could be confident that if changes in the frequency of normal and forked phenotypes occurred, they would not be due to natural selection.
Using a larger breeding population would not be expected to alter the outcome of the experiment.
These animals were preyed upon by equally large carnivores such as saber toothed cats, cave bears and dire wolves.
