The locus B on the X chromosome of a malaria-carrying mosquito shows a 49% recombination rate with respect to the locus M.Since a recombination rate of 50% is essentially indistinguishable from independent assortment, you might be tempted to look for a locus that falls between B and M.Before you decide to do all that work, you run a chi-square test to determine the p value of your experiment.Which of the following p values would be most likely to tell you that you should accept the conclusion that locus B and locus M are, indeed, 49 mu apart and that another locus is not necessary?
A) p = 0.45
B) p = 0.07
C) p = 0.05
D) p = 0.0007
