Question 9 Question 10
In an organism, one pair of genes A and B shows 19.2 per cent When two varieties of a species of plant homozygous for a particular
recombination and other pair of genes C and D shows 12.8 per cent character are crossed, the offspring showed the phenotype of only
recombination. If, recombination between the genes B and C is 6.2 one of the parents. Which of the following statements could be true
per cent and C is located between A and B but D is not, then regarding the alleles responsible for the traits?
recombination frequency between the genes B and D would be
1)The unmodified allele produces no enzyme at all
1)More than that of A and D 2)
2)Less than that of B and C Both modified and unmodified alleles produce less efficient
3)Equal to that of C and D enzyme
4)Less than that of A and C (answer) 3)The modified allele produces a non-functional enzyme
(answer)
@NEET_BROKER_BACKUP 4)The unmodified allele produces less amount of enzyme
