During meiosis crossing-over gene exchange between chromosomes may occur Crossing-over usually results in?
The result of crossing over is genetic diversity. More specifically, it is a hybrid chromosome with a unique pattern of genetic material. Does this answer help?
What is the definition of genetic distance?
The "distance" or similarity between the allelic frequency of two separate populations. *Usually the two populations are separated over a significant geographic distance.
What is a genetic map?
Genetic map is a graphic representation of a linkage group in the form of line which shows by points the sequence of the genes and the relative distances between the genes it contains. Genetic map is called a linkage map, or chromosome map.
Why crossing over takes place?
Occurs during prophase I of meiosis (pachytene) in a process called synapsis. Crossover usually occurs when matching regions on matchingchromosomes break and then reconnect to the other chromosome. The value of crossing over is that each parent has a different daughter cell.
What are the strands of genetic material floating in a nucleus of a animal cell?
Strands of genetic material floating in the nucleus is chromatin. Cytoplasm is the part of the cell that is between the cell membrane and the nucleus.
Which part of chromosome exchange during meiosis centromere or telomere?
During meiosis, chromosome exchange occurs at the chiasmata, which are points of crossing over between non-sister chromatids. The exchange involves the exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes, not specifically at the centromere or telomere regions.
Suppose your looking through a microscope and you see an exchange of chromosome segments between chromosome pair 7 and chromosome pair 15?
An exchange of chromosome segments is called a translocation. In genetics, it refers to a chromosome abnormality caused by rearrangement of parts between nonhomologous chromosomes.
How is the distance between two genes related to the chance they are inherited together?
The distance between two genes is related to the chance that they might be inherited together, because they may be on the same chromosome. Genetic linkage is the tendency of certain loci or alleles to be inherited together. Genetic loci that are physically close to one another on the same chromosome tend to stay together during meiosis, and are thus genetically linked.
Can you give a sentence for chromosome?
The genetic difference between men and women comes down to the X and Y chromosome
Through a microscope you see an exchange of chromosome segments between chromosome pair 7 and chromosome pair 15 This condition is an example?
translocation
What is the form of genetic exchange in bacteria that involves contact between two cells?
This is the exchange of plasmids between the cells.
Explain the exchange of chromosome segments between chromatids of homologous or non-homologous chromosomes?
a. crossing over b. independent assortment or c. random fertilization
Suppose you're looking through a microscope and you see an exchange of chromosome segments between chromosome pair 7 and chromosome pair 15 this condition is an example of?
the answer is TRANSLOCATION.
During meiosis crossing-over gene exchange between chromosomes may occur Crossing-over usually results in?
The result of crossing over is genetic diversity. More specifically, it is a hybrid chromosome with a unique pattern of genetic material. Does this answer help?
What process would entail an exchange of chromosome segments between pair 7 and 15?
The exchange of segments is called translocation.
Suppose you're looking through a microscope and you see an exchange of chromosome segments between chromosome pair 7 and chromosome pair 15 this conditions is an example of?
cross over
What is the exchange of a corresponding segment between homologous chromosomes?
It would appear you are speaking of crossing over which takes place in Prophase I of meiosis.
