Zoology - Principles of Inheritance and Variation Question with Solution | TestHub

When two genes are close together on the same chromosome, they do not assort independently and are said to be linked and shows less frequency of recombination. Whereas genes located on different chromosomes assort independently and have a recombination frequency of $50\%$ called as less closely linked genes. So, the correct answer is 'Tightly linked genes on the same chromosome show very few recombinations'.
