|
|
allele length is studied
|
|
|
uses gel electrophoresis
|
|

may use a pedigree

|
shows locations of genes

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Geneticists use maps to describe the location of a particular gene on a chromosome. One type of map uses the cytogenetic location to describe a gene’s position. The cytogenetic location is based on a distinctive pattern of bands created when chromosomes are stained with certain chemicals.
Detailed explanation-2: -A genetic map, also known as a linkage map, is a chromosome map of a species that shows the position of its known genes and/or markers relative to each other, rather than as specific physical points on each chromosome.
Detailed explanation-3: -Genetic Map A genetic map (also called a linkage map) shows the relative location of genetic markers (reflecting sites of genomic variants) on a chromosome.
