For a pair of closely linked genes, most of the gametes produced by an individual are:

recombinant

Solution

The gametes produced by an individual in this case will be nonrecombinant, because at any location along chromosome, recombination can occur with small probability. The frequency of recombination between two locations depends on the distance between that two locations. Therefore, the amount of crossover is high enough for genes sufficiently distant on the same chromosome to destroy the correlation between alleles.
