Answer:

Option (1).

Step-by-step explanation:

Genes may be defined as the functional segment of DNA that are heritable in nature. Each genes code for a particular protein product and responsible for phenotype and genotype of the organism.

Genes that are present on the same chromosomes are referred as linked genes. These genes are responsible for the formation of the combination of the traits. Linked genes result in the progeny that differ from the parental combination of the trait and result in the recombinant progeny.

Thus, the correct answer is option (1).
