One protein encoded by the human X-chromosome is a kinase enzyme that is essential for brain development.  Although women have two copies of the X-chromosome, their levels of this kinase enzyme are equivalent to level measured in men.  This is because

A linkage study is carried out by doing a cross between a heterozygote mouse with black fur and a straight tail (BbTt) and a homozygous recessive mouse with white fur and a curly tail (bbtt).  The fur color and tail traits are both located on chromosome II.  The resulting offspring are counted and displayed in the table below.  Using the data calculate the recombination frequency and the distance between the genes for coat color and tail shape on chromosome II.  Select the correct answer below.
