4.Principles of Inheritance and Variation
medium
Genes $A, B$ and $C$ are linked. Genes $A$ and $B$ are more close than $A$ and $C.$ Find out the correct option for the given statements
$I.$ $A$ might be before $B$ and $C$
$II.$ $B$ might be between $A$ and $C$
$III.$ $C$ might be between $A$ and $B$
$IV.$ More crosses has occurred between $A$ and $C$ than $A$ and $B$
A
$I$ and $II$
B
$II$ and $III$
C
$III$ and $IV$
D
$I, II$ and $IV$
Solution
The more cross over between $A$ and $C$ than $A$ and $B$ will be possible only when $B$ is present in between $A$ and $C$. So by taking this consideration the sequence would be $A \rightarrow B \rightarrow C$. This gene sequence also fulfil the other statements also $(I, II, IV)$
