Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
In a test cross of two genes A and B, you observe the following offspring: 450 AB, 450 ab, 50 Ab, and 50 aB. Calculate the recombination frequency. What does this tell you about the distance between genes A and B?
💡 Hint: Count the total offspring and calculate the recombinant count carefully.
Question 2
If two genes in an organism show a recombination frequency of 10%, what does this indicate about their physical distance on the chromosome? How might this information be utilized in genetic research?
💡 Hint: Consider how RF correlates with genetic mapping.
