- A geneticist determines that the order of four genes on a specific chromosome is CABD because the recombination frequencies were 35% for C-D, 24% for A-D, 23% for B-D, and 10% for A-B. What has the geneticist constructed?arrow_forwardWhy is the upper limit of recombination 50% rather than 100%?arrow_forwardAn individual is heterozygous for a reciprocal translocation, with the following chromosomes: A • B C D E F A • B C V W X R ST • U D E F R ST • U V W X Q. Explain why the fertility of this individual is likely to be less than the fertility of an individual without a translocation.arrow_forward
