Question

Explain how the distance between genes relates to the frequency of recombination

and gene mapping. Include at least 5 strong supportive sentences.

Answer 1

However, it provides an estimate or approximation of physical distance. A pair of genes with a larger recombination frequency are likely farther apart. Meanwhile, a pair with a smaller recombination frequency are likely closer together. The recombination frequency between cn and b is 9%. Also, recombination frequency between cn and vg is 9.5%.
