You are a zoologist working with Giraffes. Their main traits are: Grey tongues (G⁺), Rudimentary Horns (R⁺), Long necks (L⁺) . You perform the following testcross with an individual with recessive versions of all 3 of the traits.

P: G⁺R⁺ L⁺/G⁺R⁺ L⁺x G R L/GR L

F1(all identical): G⁺R⁺ L⁺/G R L

What this the distance between G and R?

What is the distance between G and L?

What is the distance between R and L?

What is the correct order of the genes on the chromosome? (5 points) (Hints: You should draw it first. The overall order will not change whether reading from the left or the right side of the chromosome).

**Title: Genetic Study on Giraffe Traits**

**Introduction:**

As a zoologist researching giraffes, you are studying their distinct characteristics:

- Grey tongues (G⁺)
- Rudimentary horns (R⁺)
- Long necks (L⁺)

**Objective:**

The goal is to analyze the inheritance of these traits through a test cross with an individual demonstrating recessive versions of all traits.

**Parental Generation (P):**

- G⁺ R⁺ L⁺/G⁺ R⁺ L⁺ × G R L

**First Filial Generation (F1):**

- All offspring are: G⁺ R⁺ L⁺/G R L

**Test Cross Progeny Results:**

A test cross was conducted, and the offspring were categorized based on trait combinations, as follows:

| Test Cross Progeny | Quantity |
|--------------------|----------|
| G R L | 2021 |
| G⁺ R⁺ L⁺ | 1987 |
| G⁺ R L⁺ | 600 |
| G⁺ R L | 444 |
| G R L⁺ | 125 |
| G⁺ R⁺ L | 122 |
| G⁺ R L | 7 |
| G R⁺ L⁺ | 1 |

**Total Progeny:** 5307

**Note:** Do not round your answers. Maintain one decimal point accuracy (e.g., 2.3, not 2.39).
