thanks for the replies

Here is another question:

True or false: frequency of crossing over increases when the allelic genes are linked?


I think false... since the closer the genes are the less frequency of cross over right???
any thought?

Correct, thats false. If the genes are linked, crossing over does not occur. And the further they are, the more likely they will cross-over.
