What Does Physical Mapping Provide That the Other Types of Genetic

Question

What does physical mapping provide that the other types of genetic mapping do not?
A) recombination distances between genes
B) number of nucleotide base pairs between genes
C) relationship of the gene to specific chromosomal banding patterns
D) frequencies of alleles in a population

Accepted Answer

Physical mapping provides the number of nucleotide base pairs between genes, which is a precise measurement of the physical distance on the DNA molecule, unlike other genetic mapping methods that may rely on recombination frequencies or population data.
