Correct Answer: Option A
Explanation
One centiMorgan (cM) is a unit of genetic distance defined as the chromosome length over which, on average, 1 recombination event (crossover) occurs per 100 meioses, resulting in a 1% recombination frequency.recombination frequency (after statistical correction for double crossovers using Kosambi or Haldane mapping functions). Distances >50 cM are unlinked (independent assortment). In humans, 1 cM corresponds to approximately 1 Mb of physical DNA on average, but this varies greatly by chromosomal region and sex (females have higher recombination rates).
