Question

Describe 2 situations in which independent assortment of genes results in 50%

Answer 1

Two situations are:

(i) When the genes of different traits are located on the same chromosome and must be distantly located to enhance the recombination frequency.

(ii) When the genes of different traits may be located on different chromosomes.

Answer 2

Explanation:

If two genes are located far apart on the same chromosome than the frequency of crossing over increases.

• Crossing over is likely to occur in every meiotic division. Thus, the genes would independently assort. The recombination frequency of these genes can reach upto 50%.
