Answer:
Multiple crossovers are more common.
Explanation:
Genome editing can be defined as a high-tech process which avail scientists the opportunity or ability to remove (delete), replace and insert Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) sequence in a living organism such as bacterias, animals, plants etc in order to correct a genetic disorder and to improve on their physical and chemical conditions.
A mapping experiment refers to an investigation which typically involves the process of manipulating an independent variable (the cause) in order to be able to determine or measure the dependent variable (the effect).
This ultimately implies that, an experiment can be used by scientists to show or demonstrate how a condition causes or gives rise to another i.e cause and effect, influence, behavior, etc in a sample.
In mapping experiments, if the genetic distance increases, there would be a consequential increase in multiple crossovers causing a recombinant with an odd number of crossovers and a parental combination with an even number of crossover events by switching it back.
Hence, mapping experiments become less accurate when the distances between genes become large because multiple crossovers are more common.
