 If Darwin had been aware of genes and their typical mode of transmission to subsequent generations, with which statement would he most likely have been in agreement?

#Unit 11. Evolution and Behavior
  1. If natural selection can change gene frequency in a population over generations, given enough time and genetic diversity, then natural selection can cause sufficient genetic change to produce new species from old ones.

  2. If an organism's somatic cell genes change during its lifetime, making it more fit, then it will be able to pass these genes on to its offspring.

  3. If an organism acquires new genes by engulfing, or being infected by, another organism, then a new genetic species will result.

  4. A single mutation in a single gene in a single gamete, if inherited by future generations, will produce a new species.

You perform the three different two-factor crosses (Cross 1: XY and xy, Cross 2: YZ and yz, and Cross 3: XZ and xz). Assume all crosses are between diploid flies homozygous for the alleles of these genes. You observe 7% recombinants in the first cross, 20% recombinants in the second cross, and 13% recombinants in the third cross. if cross between XyZ and xYz leads to which of the followining recombinant with double cross over .
