Summary Introduction

To analyze:

The alleles a recombinant chromatid will have after crossing over occurred once on its site between gene B and C.

Introduction:

Crossover occurs when non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes exchange genetic material during meiosis, resulting in novel allelic combinations in the daughter cells. The maternal gamete and the paternal gamete each contribute one copy of each chromosome to each diploid cell.
