Problem 2

Background and context

The distance between the two genes is represented in a genetic map and is measured in centimorgans. The distance between the two genes also represents the recombination frequency. This can be seen as 1cM is equal to 1 percent recombination frequency. The maximum recombination frequency can be 50% that is the genes can be only 50cM apart from being recombinant. The genes separated by more distance are not linked.
