The answer is thirteen.

STR stands for <u>s</u>hort <u>t</u>andem <u>r</u>epeats. In this analysis, highly polymorphic regions with short tandem repeats are used. In FBI investigation, thirteen regions are analyzed and compared. The chance for two people to have the exact same thirteen regions is almost impossible (1 : 1 billion or less). This way a difference between two DNA profiles could be assessed.

GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

C. Between rai and h

Explanation:

To be able solve this problem, it will be helpful to go and review the two - point mapping data generated for all the three genes that were involved. Putting in to considering that the map distances between jv-h (7.3 mu) and h-th (16.7 mu) equal the sum of the distance between jv-th (24 mu), having been given the distance between th-rai is greater (26.2 mu), the jv gene is said to be located between rai and and h.
