    One chromosome of a homologous pair carries the genes J and K. The other chromosome of the pair carries the genes j and k at corresponding loci. Crossing over results in exchange of chromosome segments and production of gametes with new combinations of genes. A recombinant type gamete resulting from this crossover might contain:

    A) Genes J and K

    B) Genes j and K

    C) Genes J and j

    D) Genes j and k

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Crossing over does not alter the traits that are coded for it only affects the variant that is coded for.
