Solution

The correct option is B linkage strength
Linkage strength determines the closeness of the two linked genes. A strength of linkage is inversely proportional to the distance between the two linked genes. Depending upon the linkage strength, two types of linkage are classified: (1) complete linkage and (2) incomplete linkage.
