Q.

What map unit (Centimorgan) is adopted in the construction of genetic maps?

  1. A

    A unit of distance between two expressed genes representing 10% cross over.

  2. B

    A unit of distance between two expressed genes representing 100% cross over.

  3. C

    A unit of distance between genes on chromosomes, representing 1% cross over.

  4. D

    A unit of distance between genes on chromosomes, representing 50% cross over.
