Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Linked gene are genes with a high probability of being inherited together. Linked genes are mostly found on the same chromosome and chromosome arm. The closer the genes are along the arm of the chromosome, the even higher degree of linkage – because even in cases of crossing over in meiosis I, they are more likely to remain together.
