6) Read the given statements carefully. Statement I: All genes are essentially present on the chromosome Statement II: Genes, that are located on the same chromosome will always pass together from one generation to another Statement III: The distance between two genes can never be mapped without cloning experiments Statement IV: All genes are essentially overlapping present on the chromosome Pick the INCORRECT interpretation for the molecular explanation of chromosomal theory of inheritance. Statement I Statement II Statement III Statement IV

In an experiment two genes were assorted independently. Which of following points explain the best about the chromosomal location of these 2 genes? They are located in close proximity on the same chromosome Crossing over between the genes does not occur The genes are either located on different chromosomes or are far apart on the same chromosome The location of the genes cannot be predicted based on the given data

Which of the following statements is true about mutations?i. They can produce new alleles of existing genes.ii. They can be inherited if they are in somatic cells.iii. They may affect a single codon or a part of a chromosomeiv. They are always linked to diseasei, ii and iiii and iiiii and iiii, ii, iii and iv

Genes that are linked are:Question 5Select one:a.on the same chromosome.b.usually on the same chromosome.c.on different chromosomes.d.assort independently.

Select the true statement about genes and chromosomes.Multiple choice question.The number of genes in a cell exceeds the number of chromosomes.The number of genes in a cell equals the number of chromosomes.The number of chromosomes in a cell exceeds the number of genes.

Which two of the following correctly describe what a gene is?A packet of genetic information that can be passed down from one generation to the nextA DNA moleculeThe entire collection of genetic information in a given speciesA section of DNA that provides instructions for building a specific protein
