What are characteristics of two loci being in linkage disequilibrium? O a. The two loci are located on different chromosomes. O b. There is a random association between a chromosome's genotype at one locus compared to another locus. O c. The coefficient of linkage disequilibrium is greater than zero. O d. The genotype on a chromosome for a given locus is independent of other genotypes at other loci on the same chromosome.
