Q. No.What is the relationship between the strength of linkage and recombination frequency?
| 1. | Stronger linkage results in a higher recombination frequency. |
| 2. | Recombination frequency and linkage strength are independent of each other. |
| 3. | Stronger linkage results in a lower recombination frequency. |
| 4. | Higher recombination frequency indicates stronger linkage. |

If the percent recombination between A and B is 15, between A and C is 5, and between B and C is 10, then the order of the genes on the chromosome is
| 1. | A–B–C. | 2. | B–A–C. |
| 3. | A–C–B. | 4. | C–B–A. |

How would one explain a test cross involving F1 dihybrid flies in which more parental-type offspring than recombinant-type offspring are produced?
| 1. | The two genes are closely linked on the same chromosome |
| 2. | The two genes are linked but on different chromosomes |
| 3. | Recombination did not occur in the cell during meiosis |
| 4. | The test cross was improperly performed |

A genetic map is one that:
| 1. | Establishes sites of the genes on a chromosome |
| 2. | Establishes the various stages in gene evolution |
| 3. | Shows the stages during the cell division |
| 4. | Shows the distribution of various species in a region |
