Question

How do you know if the genes are linked?

Answer 1

Linked genes:

1. When two genes are found on the same chromosome, they are said to be linked.
2. Genes are the fundamental genetic component transferred from parent to kid. They are composed of DNA sequences and are organized sequentially at specified sites on chromosomes in the cell nucleus.
3. That means that alleles, or gene versions, that are already present on one chromosome will be inherited as a group more often than not.
4. If and how closely two genes are linked, the recombination frequency can be calculated using data from genetic crosses.
5. If the genes are linked, then the recombination is rare and they show more parental combinations in offspring.
