Answer : Option 1
The genes which are present close together physically in a chromosome tend to be inherited together. This phenomenon is called linkage.
During the crossing over in meiosis, segments of chromosome are exchanged between homologous chromosomes. This gene swapping is called Recombination. However, genes placed close together tend to be present in the same segment. Hence, they are inherited together in the same chromosome.
The recombinant frequency tells how far apart two genes are. The lesser the frequency, the closer they are present.

Which of these statements is incorrect? Syntenic genes are located on the same chromosome. Independent assortment results in recombinant chromosomes. You can reliably predict the relative genetic distance from genes’ physical distance on a chromosome. Linked genes are always syntenic. What is the relative genetic distance between two linked genes if the recombination frequency is 0.49? 0.49 cM 4.9 cM 49 cM 490 cM What statement best explains the distortion in Mendelian ratios observed by Bateson & Punnett in 1905?...

You have three genes on the same chromosome - A, B and C. Each gene has two alleles in a dominant/recessive relationship. For these genes the homozygous recessive has the mutant phenotype for that trait, the dominant phenotype = wild type for that trait. allele A is dominant to a; phenotype a = mutant for trait a; phenotype A = wild type for trait A allele B is dominant to b; phenotype b = mutant for trait b; phenotype B...

In Drosophila (fruit flies) the genes how, dumpy and ebony are located on chromosome 3. LOF = loss of function. Flies homozygous for a LOF mutation (no gene product made) in ebony have dark black bodies. Flies homozygous for a LOF mutation (no gene product made) in dumpyhave truncated (short) wings. Flies homozygous for a partial LOF mutation (some gene product made but significantly less than normal) in how have wings that will not fold down (held out wings; that's...

A woman with Turner syndrome (X0-only one X-chromosome) is also colorblind (an X-linked recessive phenotype). Both of her parents have normal color vision. This women's karyotype and genotype could have arisen by: a) a mutation in her mother's X-chromosome b) non-disjunction in mitosis c) non-disjunction in meiosis 1 in her father d) non-disjunction in meiosis 2 in her mother e) non-disjunction in meiosis 1 in her mother 10.

Mapping genes with recombination frequencies in Drosophila 1. Suppose you know of three linked loci on the Drosophila X chromosome (a, b, and c). Assume that you are starting out with true-breeding stocks that show all three recessive traits and true-breeding stocks that show all three dominant traits. A.
