Be sure to download your notes that you took during the quiz as a pdf and upload them at the end of this assessment! It’s worth 5 points. In the space below, do you have any questions for me about the quiz or the course? Hope you have a great rest of your week! Here’s a pic of my cat Coconut 🙂 Screenshot 2025-12-29 at 10.35.42 AM.png

Because this is an online course, I can take my exams at home via Honorlock.

Viewing and actively taking notes over the pre-recorded digital lectures is not necessary for success in this course.

In this Flex Online format course, you only need to complete the exams and quizzes. You do not need to view the pre-recorded lectures or complete the reading work (RW) quizzes and homework(HW).

I am able to make up assignments that I miss or don’t complete by the due date.

Which type of nonverbal communication involves body movements such as gestures and posture?

You are attempting to pinpoint the location of a recessive mutation in corn that causes drought tolerance.  You have crossed the drought tolerant corn (homozygous recessive for the mutation) in strain A to a second strain of corn (strain B) that have the normal, dominant allele for drought sensitivity.  You have run three different molecular markers on the two parents, the F1 as well as 12 different F2 plants that each have the drought tolerant phenotype.  Answer the questions below the gel images   For each marker describe whether it is linked or unlinked to the mutation and, if linked, what is the genetic distance.  Your answer will have the following format for each marker: “Marker X is linked/unlinked to the mutation and is located XXcM from the mutation” (Note that the underlined portion will only be present if the marker is linked).
