What is the arrangement of genes on chromosomes resulting from crossing over called?

The distance between two linked genes on a chromosome is measured in cross-over units,which is:

In a certain plant, red flowers $(R)$ are dominant to white flowers $(r)$ and tallness $(T)$ is dominant to dwarfness $(t)$. $A$ heterozygous plant $(RrTt)$ is backcrossed with a double recessive plant $(rrtt)$. If the gene loci for colour and size are situated very close together on the same chromosome, the expected percentage of offspring could be approximately:

Tall Red

Tall White

Dwarf Red

Dwarf White

respectively.

Frequency of recombination between gene pairs on the same chromosome as a measure of the distance between genes to map their position on the chromosome was used for the first time by

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion $(A)$ and the other is labelled as Reason $(R)$.
Assertion $(A)$:
Mendel's law of independent assortment does not hold good for the genes that are located closely on the same chromosome.
Reason $(R)$:
Closely located genes assort independently.
In the light of the above statements,choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Genetic variation is observed in sexually reproducing species.
