The distance between the genes and percentage recombination shows:

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

If two genes are far apart on a chromosome, we would expect that the proportion of meiocytes in which a crossover occurs between the genes would be greater than in cases in which two linked loci are very close together. Thus, by determining the frequency of recombinants, we should be able to obtain a measure of the map distance between the genes.
