gene mapping is a procedure by which you find out what type of genes are present in the chromosomes of a living organism. you identify the location of genes also.

for example the gene mapping of human was completed in 2001-2003 because humans have 45 chromosomes and approximately 35000 genes. so to identify such a large amount of genes and to find out their location, the scientists of the world distributed the task among themselves but still it took several years!!

What is the purpose of genetic mapping?

Genetic mapping is mapping genes to a specific location on a chromosome. therefore the purpose is that it helps to tell where on the chromosome a mutation is. For example if scientists find were on a chromosome a gene for a certain mutation, they can conduct gene therapy to replace it with a normal version of that gene. Basically it just tells scientists the location of a mutation so they can fix it more efficiently.


What is the process of designating genes or DNA fragments to chromosomes in genetics?

The process of assigning genes or DNA fragments to chromosomes in genetics is called gene mapping. This involves determining the chromosomal location of a gene based on its phenotype, inheritance patterns, or physical distance from known genetic markers. Techniques such as linkage analysis, cytogenetic mapping, and molecular mapping are commonly used for this purpose.

What are types of mapping?

There are three main types of mapping: thematic mapping, topographic mapping, and web mapping. Thematic mapping focuses on specific themes or topics, topographic mapping shows physical features of an area like elevation and terrain, and web mapping involves displaying maps on the internet using interactive tools.
