A panel of cell lines was created by human—mouse somatic-cell hybridization. Each line was examined for the presence of human chromosomes and for the production of an enzyme. The following results were obtained: 

On the basis of these results, which chromosome has the gene that encodes the enzyme?

A three point test cross was carried out in Drosophila melanogaster involving three adjacent genes A, B and C. arranged in the same order. The distance between A to B is 15 map unit (mu) and that between B to C is 30 map. The coefficient of coincidence = 0.67. What is the percentage of double recombinants in the progeny obtained from the testcross?
