  • C.Alleles
  • D.Locus

Answer: C

Different forms of the same gene or marker are called alleles. An allele is one of the alternative versions of a gene found at the same position on a chromosome, such as the A, B and O alleles of the blood group gene. Genetic linkage is the tendency of genes close together on a chromosome to be inherited together, linkage equilibrium describes random association between alleles at different loci, and the locus is the position itself. Option C is correct.
