Answer:
a. map unit
Explanation:
The map unit is the unit to represent the chances or the frequency of the recombination between the two genes. It shows the distance between the two genes present on the same chromosome. The frequency of recombination between two genes present on the same chromosome represents the distance between them that is measured in the form of map units. For example, two genes are said to be 10 map units apart if they exhibit 10% recombination. These genes are mapped 10 centimorgans apart from each other on the chromosome.
