Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A genetic map is a tool that shows the relative locations of genes along a chromosome. It is constructed based on the frequency of recombination (crossover) events between genes during meiosis. The distances between gene loci are measured in terms of the frequency of recombination, which allows for the creation of a map showing the relative positions of genes.
