Neither set of linked loci demonstrates linkage disequilibrium.c. The mutant allele in the second set of linked loci originated earlier than the mutant allele in the first set of linked loci.d. The mutant allele in the first set of linked loci originated earlier than the mutant allele in the second set of linked loci.
