What are gene maps and how are they produced?
A gene map is the descriptive representation of the structure of a single gene. It includes the DNA sequence of a gene with introns and exons, 3' or 5' transcribed-untranslated regions, termination (poly-adenylation) signal, regulatory elements such as promoters, enhancers and it may include known mutations defining alternative alleles of the same gene.:) hope that helps..
What is gene linkage?
Gene linkage is where genes that are located near each other in a chromosome become linked together afterwards due to meiosis.
What shows relative locations of each known gene in an organism?
Each gene has one and only one beginning point, called the start codon.
Why didn't Mendel observe linkage?
Mendel did not observe linkage because, by chance, he chose traits whose genes resided on different chromosomes. Genes on different chromosomes assort independently. To answer the question of 'Who discovered gene linkage?'...The answer is British geneticists William Bateson and Reginald Punnett.
Is it possible to create mutant gene what can make life much longer?
In theory yes, in practice we don't know how to even start.
How' linkage is used to make gene maps?
A gene map is a chromosomal map, which shows the location of genes. Based on inherited genes, a linkage can be used to create a gene map.

What is linkage-gene?
Gene linkage is where genes that are located near each other in a chromosome become linked together afterwards due to meiosis.
How is a gene constructed?
Alfred's Sturtevant Method: The rate at which linked genes were separated and recombined could then be used to produce a "map" of distances between genes. Sturtevant's method of using recombination rates, which measure the frequencies of crossing-over between genes, has been used to construct genetic maps.Bibliography:Miller, Kenneth R., and Joseph S. Levine. Prentice Hall Biology. Upper Saddle River, NJ: Pearson Prentice Hall, 2006. Print.

What is linkage mapping?
Linkage map: A map of the genes on a chromosome based on linkage analysis. A linkage map does not show the physical distances between genes but rather their relative positions, as determined by how often two gene loci are inherited together.
What is the birth name of Gene Massett?
Gene Massett's birth name is Jean Alfred Massett.
Why did mendel not observe gene linkage during his expirements with pea plants?
cuz hez weerd
What shows relative locations of each known gene in an organism?
Each gene has one and only one beginning point, called the start codon.
What gene did they use to create glowing mice?
A gene from a firefly
Does linkage refer to how the acids in DNA are connected?
Linkage is called gene linkage .It refers to linking up of genes in a chromosome .It was first properly explained by T.H. Morgan . As there are thousands of genes but number of chromosomes are limited hence each chromosome contains a large number of linked genes .
What concept is considered an exception to Mendel's law of independent assortment?
Gene linkage us considered an exception to Mendel's Law of Independent Assortment.
