Genetics: Linkage

Easy

(Originais Teachy 2023) - Question Easy of Biology

In 1923, Thomas Hunt Morgan was the first to discover the linkage between two genes, using fruit flies (Drosophila melanogaster) in his crossing experiment. He found that certain gene pairs were transmitted together to the next generation and named this tendency 'linkage'. What does 'linkage' mean?
a.
That two genes are not linked to each other and are not transmitted to the next generation.
b.
That two genes are linked to each other and transmitted to the next generation.
c.
That two genes are linked to each other, but neither is transmitted to the next generation.
d.
That two genes are linked to each other and can be genetically modified in the next generation.
e.
That two genes are not linked to each other, but both are transmitted to the next generation.

The tissues of the human body perform specific functions and are organized into systems that ensure the organism's homeostasis. Imagine that a scientist, while studying the effects of a disease that affects skeletal muscle tissue, observed that, as a result of the disease, the contraction capacity of the muscle fibers was compromised. Based on this situation, describe: 1) The relationship between the structure of muscle fibers and their contractile function, including the main cellular components involved in this process. 2) Explain how a change in a tissue such as skeletal muscle can affect the functioning of other systems in the human body, considering the interdependence between tissues and systems for the maintenance of health.
