How is model affected if crossover probability is smaller

Reference no: EM131319212

Dependence on crossover mechanism. In the simple model of sex, each bit is taken at random from one of the two parents, that is, we allow crossovers to occur with probability 50% between any two adjacent nucleotides. How is the model affected

(a) if the crossover probability is smaller?

(b) if crossovers occur exclusively at hot-spots located every d bits along the genome?
