Question

some mendelian crossing experimental results were shown to the students teachers informed that there are two genes located on the same chromosomes he enquired if they will be ever separted from each other​

Answer 1

Answer:

When two genes are located on the same chromosome and as much they are near to each other they defy the Mendel's Law of Independent Assortment which says that "alleles coding for separate traits are passed independently of one another" but  William Bateson, Edith Rebecca Saunders and Reginald Punnett in 1905 discovered the phenomenon of Genetic linkage, according to which two genes located on the same chromosome and are near to each other are unlikely to get separated and tends to gets inherited together. So, there is a very low probability of the two genes to separate from each other. However, the most important consideration in this matter will be the distance between them.
