To find insertions into a specific region on chromosome 3, the researcher separately crosses individual F2 male flies with eye pigment to females heterozygous for a deletion on chromosome 3. Since this deletion is homozygous lethal (as most large deletions are), she uses flies that have one copy of a normal chromosome 3 as well as one copy with the deletion. The normal (non-deleted) chromosome 3 also carries a dominant mutation called Serrate, which produces notched wings. (This non-deleted chromosome also does not allow for recombination with the chromosome with the deletion). The females are also homozygous for the white mutation, meaning that any progeny with eye pigment will have a P-element insertion with its mini white marker. In this way, the researcher hopes to find P-element insertions in her screen that do not survive when paired with the deletion -- indicating that the insertions are in the region spanned by the deletion, and have caused a mutation in a gene essential for survival. When the researcher examines the progeny with eye pigment that result from these crosses, she finds two different categories of flies. Some crosses produce flies with eye pigment and notched wings, as well as flies with eye pigment and normal wings. Other crosses produce flies with eye pigment and notched wings, but no flies with eye pigment and normal wings. What might explain these results

Directions: read the descriptions of the four islands presented in the lesson. 1. list two new traits that each new species of rat might demonstrate as it adapts to the conditions on each island. 2. introduce one of the four new rat species to another island and describe one challenge it would encounter and one success as it adapts to its new environment.

You will create a molecular clock model for an arthropod gene. follow these guidelines to make your model: . your timeline will span from 90 million years ago to the present. the common ancestor in your model is an arthropod that lived 90 million years ago. the gene that you'll track codes for a protein in the species venom . the dna sequence youll track contains 10 nitrogen bases. you can choose the order of the bases and where the mutations occur. this gene mutates at a rate of approximately 0.76 base pairs every 17.1 million years. to build your model,/ calculate the estimated time period it takes for 1 base pair to mutate. the first time period will only show the common ancestor. at the beginning of the second time period, three lineages will diverge from the common ancestor, each with a different mutation in their gene sequences. the first and third descendant species will survive for the rest of the timeline. the second descendant species was extinct 50 million years ago. calculate how long it will take for one full base pair mutation to occur. explain your reasoning by constructing a mathematical equation
