B- If rare phenotypes are favored over common phenotypes

C- Introduction of new allele in to a population by mutation and allowed to higher fitness in individuals

D- One homozygote has a highest level of fitness than heterozygote and another homozygote

5 You are studying regulation of the yeast enzyme glutamine synthetase (GS), which is encoded by the GLN1 gene. You have isolated two mutants, designated gln2– and gln3–, that give decreased GS activity. Mating of either gln2– or gln3– haploids to wild type produces heterozygous diploids that show normal amounts of GS expression. When you cross either a gln2– or gln3– haploid to a gln1– strain the resulting diploids show normal expression of GS.
Describe the cis-acting elements in the GLN1 promoter that are evident from these experiments, giving both their position and as much of their function as you can deduce.

A series of two-point crosses were carried out among five loci (a, b, c, d and e) producing the following recombination frequencies. Using these recombination frequencies, map these five loci, showing  their linkage groups, the order of the loci in each linkage group is;

What is the correct order of the loci?
