Which among the following do not follow independent assortment?
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
C
A linked gene on the same chromosome does not follow independent assortment.
whenever two genes are linked because of their location on a chromosome, their alleles will not segregate independently during gamete formation.
As a result, test crosses involving alleles of linked genes will yield phenotypic ratios that stray from the classic Mendelian ratios.
