Question
a genetic ______ indicates the distances between gene loci measured in terms of the frequency of recombination.
multiple choice
karyotype
profile
pedigree
clone
map
The question describes a tool that measures distances between gene loci using recombination frequency. A genetic map (or linkage map) is specifically defined as a diagram showing the relative positions of genes on a chromosome based on recombination frequencies. Other options: karyotype shows chromosome structure, profile is a general set of characteristics, pedigree tracks inheritance, clone is a genetically identical copy—none match the definition.
