Due to linkage, the genes present on same chromosome stay together during transmission. All other combinations except AABB x aabb show recombination which do not show linkage and hence not suitable for experiments on linkage.

  1. a) True
  2. b) False
  3. c) Cannot be determined
  4. d) None of the above

Correct answer: a) True

Solution

Linkage occurs when genes on the same chromosome are inherited together, so they do not show recombination. The AABB x aabb cross is not suitable for experiments on linkage because it does not show linkage.
