Explanation
Linked genes are located on the same chromosome and tend to be inherited together. Crossing over can separate them.

Explanation
Crossing over between homologous chromosomes can exchange chromosome segments and separate linked alleles.
Question 11
11
Points: 1

Explanation
Linked genes tend to be inherited together, but crossing over can separate them and create recombinant combinations.
Question 12
12
Points: 1
Which statement is most accurate about genes with a low recombination frequency?
Explanation
A low recombination frequency indicates that the genes are close together on the same chromosome.
Question 13
13
Points: 1
In fruit flies, the genes for yellow body and white eyes are placed close together on the chromosome map because:
Explanation
Genes that are close together have a lower probability of crossing over occurring between them, so they show a low crossover frequency.
Question 14
14
Points: 1
A recombination frequency of 10% between two genes indicates that they are approximately:
Explanation
One percent recombination frequency corresponds approximately to one map unit, so 10% corresponds to 10 map units.
Question 15
15
Points: 1
If gene A and gene B show a 5% recombination frequency, while gene B and gene C show a 35% recombination frequency, which conclusion is best supported?
Explanation
A higher recombination frequency generally indicates a greater distance between genes. Therefore B and C are farther apart than A and B.
Question 16
16
Points: 1
Three genes are arranged on a chromosome in the order X–Y–Z. If the recombination frequency between X and Y = 6% and between Y and Z = 12%, then the recombination frequency between X and Z is:
Explanation
Because Y lies between X and Z, the distances are added: 6% + 12% = 18%.
Question 17
17
Points: 1
Three genes are arranged in the order A–B–C. If A–B = 4 map units and B–C = 9 map units, what is the distance between A and C?
Explanation
Since B lies between A and C, the distances are added: 4 + 9 = 13 map units.
Question 18
18
Points: 1
Which statement best explains why Mendel did not detect linkage in his pea plant experiments?
Explanation
The genes Mendel studied behaved largely as independently assorting genes, so linkage was not apparent in his experimental results.
Question 19
19
Points: 1
Which statement best explains the relationship between crossing over and genetic variation?
Explanation
Crossing over exchanges chromosome segments and creates new combinations of existing alleles, increasing genetic variation.
Question 20
20
Points: 1
Which of the following concepts is most directly responsible for the formula 2ⁿ in gamete formation?
Explanation
The formula 2ⁿ describes the number of chromosome combinations possible in gametes due to independent assortment.
