उत्तर

Genes located in the same chromosomes are said to be linked in inheritance. 

Explanation:

Since chromosomes carry many genes, genes that are close together on the same chromosome tend to be inherited together rather than assort independently. This phenomenon is called linkage. Linked genes do not follow Mendel’s law of independent assortment strictly because they tend to be transferred as a group from one generation to the next, unless separated by crossing over during meiosis.
