Mendel observed that some characters did not assort independently. Later researchers found it to be due to
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:
The linkage map of $X$-chromosome of fruit fly has $66$ units with yellow body gene $(y)$ at one end and bobbed hair $(b)$ gene at the other end. The recombination frequency between these two genes ($y$ and $b$) should be
Alleles of different genes that are on the same chromosome may occasionally be separated by a phenomenon known as
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?
