How did the development of anonymous markers aid in the production of a human genetic map?
A. Anonymous markers are genetic markers that cause a detectable phenotype and can't be detected by molecular techniques. The markers correspond to specific and unique chromosomal regions, thereby allowing for the identification and ordering of particular segments of DNA. Such information was essential to the generation of a human genetic map. B.
