Question
Which of the following statements are true regarding the F2 offspring of a mapping cross for three genes on the same chromosome?
Recombinant allelic combinations will occur less frequently when genes are further apart.
assuming all three genes are genetically linked, the most common classes of F2 offspring will be those containing parental allelic combinations
the recombination rate calculated between any pair of genes will never exceed 50%
F2 offspring will tend to inherit all dominant or all recessive alleles from the triheterozygous parent
the alleles bf each gene willassort independently making parental and recombinant allelic combinations equally likely among the F2.
double recombinant offspring will be the rarest class

Expert Solution
Step 1

A three-point cross is a cross done between the 3 genes to know the order and distance between the genes. 
Chromosomes that usually are lined up close to one another have an opportunity to interact and recombine to form new combinations of alleles. so they do this by forming a tree point cross that helps them t find the order of the genes and distance between genes.
