drag the tiles to the correct boxes to complete the pairs. match the genes with their linkage ability. strongly linked genes not so strongly linked genes unlinked genes genes close to each other genes apart from each other, but on the same chromosome genes on different chromosomes reset next
Genes close to each other on the same chromosome are strongly linked as they tend to be inherited together more often. Genes apart from each other on the same chromosome are not so strongly linked as there is a higher chance of crossing - over separating them. Genes on different chromosomes are unlinked as they assort independently during meiosis.
