Solution
The correct option is B12% It is given that the both non-allelic genes are 24 map units apart. It means they have 24% recombination. Each recombinant, that is Aabb and aaBb will be 12%.
The parental recombination = 100 - recombinanat recombination = 100 - 24 = 76%. Each parental combination, that is AABB and aabb will be 38%.
