An experiment that was performed found the recombination frequency between two genes was 12.5%. What is the distance (in mapping units) between two genes?

Okay. So this question is talking about, say you performed an experiment and you calculated a recombination frequency between 2 genes. So there's 2 genes, and you looked at the recombination frequency and you calculated that as 12.5%, which means that 12.5% of the offspring that were produced were recombinants from both of the parents, meaning that they had that recombinant phenotype or that mixture phenotype between both of the parents. And it says, using this recombination frequency, what is the distance mapping units between the two genes? So here's our 2 genes, what is the distance? And we have to use the recombination frequency to figure that out. So knowing the recombination frequency is 12.5, What is the distance between the two genes? Is it a 25, meaning 2x, double? Is it 6.25, which is half? Is it 12.5, which is the same? Or, is it 10, which is some other weird, weird calculation from 12.5? So it's probably not d. Right? Because it's just it's an odd number compared to 12.5. So is the recombination frequency and the distance between two genes the same or not? Right. So if you have a recombination frequency, then you know that the distance between 2 genes in mapping units is the same. So the recombination frequency equals the distance between 2 genes in mapping units. This is just a, which, you know, it's just a unit of measurements. So it's kind of like inches, but instead of inches, it's mapping units. So this is, how we measure distance on chromosomes and mapping units. So 12.5 is going to equal the recombination frequency. So the answer here is c. So with that, let's move on.
