Step 1: Linkage refers to the tendency of genes that are located close to each other on the same chromosome to be inherited together during meiosis.
Step 2: Genes that are linked show a pattern of inheritance different from Mendel's law of independent assortment. Linked genes do not segregate independently but are transmitted together to offspring.
Step 3: The strength of linkage depends on the distance between the genes on the chromosome. The closer the genes are, the stronger the linkage.
Match the terms in Column-I with their description in Column-II and choose the correct option.
Find the values of \( x, y, z \) if the matrix \( A \) satisfies the equation \( A^T A = I \), where
\[ A = \begin{bmatrix} 0 & 2y & z \\ x & y & -z \\ x & -y & z \end{bmatrix} \]
(b) Order of the differential equation: $ 5x^3 \frac{d^3y}{dx^3} - 3\left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)^2 + \left(\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}\right)^4 + y = 0 $
