The correct option is B Form one linkage group All the genes located on a single chromosome, are inherited together. So, they constitute a linkage group. They don't move independently during the process of cell division. They always in a group. They form a set of genes on different loci in a single chromosome. But the chromosome should not be a cross over one.
So, option B is the correct answer.
