The Genetic Map Shown Here Depicts the Locations of Five

Question 85

Multiple Choice

The genetic map shown here depicts the locations of five single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs, designated a-e) in an autosome and the frequency of recombination (in percent) between adjacent SNPs. The region includes a genetic risk factor Q for a disease, which may be located at position M, H, K, or L. The genetic map shown here depicts the locations of five single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs, designated a-e)  in an autosome and the frequency of recombination (in percent)  between adjacent SNPs. The region includes a genetic risk factor Q for a disease, which may be located at position M, H, K, or L.   Pedigree studies indicate that the frequencies of recombination between each of the SNPs and Q are as follows: percent recombination a-Q equals 10% Percent recombination b-Q equals 6% Percent recombination c-Q equals 6% Percent recombination d-Q equals 14% Percent recombination e-Q equals 30% What is the MOST likely position of Q in the genetic map? A) position M B) position H C) position K D) position L E) None of the answer options is correct.
