a genetic map is an illustration that lists genes and their location on a:
chromosome
nucleic acid
enzyme
protein
Genes are segments of DNA (a type of nucleic acid) that are located on chromosomes. A genetic map specifically shows the position of genes on chromosomes. Nucleic acid is too general as genes are on a specific structure (chromosome) within nucleic - acid containing cells. Enzymes and proteins are not the structures on which genes are located as per the definition of a genetic map.
