easy
The experiment shown in the given figure has been carried out by Morgan to show the phenomenon of linkage and recombination. If in cross $I$, genes are tightly linked and in cross $II$, genes are loosely linked then what will be the percentage of recombinants produced in cross $I$ and cross $II$ respectively?

A
$98.7\%$ and $62.8\%$.
B
$1.3\%$ and $37.2\%$
C
$37.2\%$ and $1.3\%$
D
$62.8\%$ and $98.7\%$
(AIIMS-2016)
Solution
The percentage of recombinants produced in cross $I$ and cross $II$ are respectively $1.3\%$ and $37.2\%$.
