Question

According to Morgan's data, genes showing 37.2% recombination (such as white and miniature wing genes) are classified as:

विकल्प

• Sex-linked only

• Unlinked

• Tightly linked

• Loosely linked

Answer 1

Genes showing 37.2% recombination frequency, such as the white and miniature wing genes in Drosophila, are classified as loosely linked. Higher recombination frequencies indicate that genes are located farther apart on the chromosome, allowing more frequent crossing over between them to produce recombinant combinations.
