Mapping positions of genes that can be tied to locations on the cytological map of a chromosome is known as:
A) Cytological analysis
B) Cytogenetic mapping
C) Recombination mapping
D) Genetic fingerprinting
E) All of these

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Mapping positions of genes on the cytological map of a chromosome is known as cytogenetic mapping. Cytological analysis involves the study of the structure and function of cells, but may not necessarily involve mapping gene positions. Recombination mapping is a specific type of genetic mapping that involves measuring the frequency of recombination events between genetic markers. Genetic fingerprinting involves analyzing DNA sequences to identify unique patterns of variations. Therefore, the correct answer is B) Cytogenetic mapping.
