Question

    Linkage equilibrium can be achieved by:

    A Selfing Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Random mating Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Sibling crossing Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Crossing Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Linkage equilibrium suggests that alleles at different loci are associated randomly. Random mating ensures that alleles combinations are mixed in a population without preferential mating based on genotype, helping to achieve linkage equilibrium.
