Imagine that you are mapping out genes on chromosomes similar to how Morgan did with fruit flies. You find gene A recombines with gene B 20% of the time, gene A recombines with gene C 5% of the time, and gene B and C recombine 17% of the time. Which gene is closest to gene B?     A     C     Don't pick this one     Don't pick this one either

Mitochondrial Mutations

A mitochondrion is a cellular organelle that serves as the site for cellular respiration and energy production (ATP or Adenosine Triphosphate). It is a double-membrane-bound organelle and is only present in eukaryotic cells.
