Question

Two alleles are in linkage disequilibrium with each other:

if an individual is more likely to pass down those two alleles together.
if they are non-randomly associated in a population.
if they are nearby on the same chromosome.
if they are linked.

Answer 1

If they are non-randomly associated in a population

Step-by-step explanation:

• Haplotypes are a set of linked genes of one genome.
• Linkage disequilibrium occurs when these haplotypes do not occur at the expected genotypic frequencies.
• Genotypic frequencies in a population are the number of people with a specific genotype divided by the total number people.
