Which statement is true about crossing over of genes? a. crossing over does not occur between genes that are far apart from each other on a chromosome b. frequency of crossing over is related to the distance between linked genes. c. genes that are close to each other frequently cross over

Answer;

c. genes that are close to each other frequently cross over

Explanation;

Crossing over is the exchange of genes between two chromosomes, resulting in non-identical chromatids that comprise the genetic material of gametes.

It therefore, creates new combinations of genes in the gametes that are not found in either parent, contributing to genetic diversity.
