Proposed by English scientist William Bateson, this theory suggests that linked genes remain together because they tend to replicate or multiply as a unit during cell division.In other words, genes located on the same chromosome are physically close to each other and, therefore, replicate as a single unit, leading to their joint inheritance.Bateson's differential multiplication theory was one of the early explanations for the phenomenon of genetic linkage.

When two genes are located close to one another on a chromosome, they tend to be transmitted together. This phenomenon is known as .

a linkage group includes:Question 1Answera.Only genes that never recombine with each otherb.All nearby genes on a chromosomec.It depends on the kind of crossd.All genes on a chromosome, including genes that are so far apart from each other on a chromosome that they assort independently during meiosis

The closer together two genes are on a chromosome, the less likely their alleles will be separated by crossing-over.

Genes that are located on the same chromosome and inherited together are called genes.

Crossing-over frequency between genes is used to construct linkage maps.  True False
