Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
| Assertion (A): | Mendel's law of Independent assortment does not hold good for the genes that are located closely on the same chromosome. |
| Reason (R): | Closely located genes assort independently. |
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
| 1. | (A) is False, (R) is True. |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains (A). |
| 3. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) does not correctly explain (A). |
| 4. | (A) is True, (R) is False. |
The recombination frequency between the genes a & c is 5%, b & c is 15%, b & d is 9%, a & b is 20%, c & d is 24% and a & d is 29%. What will be the sequence of these genes on a linear chromosome?
| 1. | a, c, b, d | 2. | a, d, b, c |
| 3. | d, b, a, c | 4. | a, b, c, d |
What map unit (Centimorgan) is adopted in the construction of genetic maps?
| 1. | A unit of distance between genes on chromosomes, representing 50% cross-over. |
| 2. | A unit of distance between two expressed genes, representing 10% cross-over. |
| 3. | A unit of distance between two expressed genes, representing 100% cross-over. |
| 4. | A unit of distance between genes on chromosomes. representing 1% cross-over. |
