A dihybrid test cross results in a recombination frequency of 50%. Most likely the two genes under consideration:

1. are closely linked on the same autosome
2. are located on heterologous chromosomes
3. are present on the X chromosome
4. are located on the same chromosome, one on either side of the centromere

An individual with c and d genes was crossed with the wild type ++. On test crossing F1, the progeny were +c 105, +d 115, cd 880 and ++900. Distance between c and d genes is:

1. 11 map units 2. 5.5 map units
3. 44 map units 4. 22 map units
