The data below is from a series of two-point crosses.
Use the recombination frequencies to construct a genetic map of all three genes.

cv – ct 34%

cv – vg 50%

vg – ct 30%

a) Draw a genetic map including all three genes and the distance between them.

b) A fourth gene, g, is found to have 12% recombination when tested with cv. Next you plan to test g and ct . Predict the outcome of the cross between g and ct.

"Humans acquire Staphylococcus saprophyticus from direct exposure to animals or inadequately cooked animal food products. Young women are more susceptible to genitourinary colonization than are others, and some people develop infection in association with hormonal influences that occur near or during menstruation. Sexual intercourse promotes colonization and infection. Alterations in the genital flora effected by spermicides or candidal infection favor colonization by S. saprophyticus. Anal intercourse may play a role in infection in homosexual men."

I am having trouble trying to figure out the relation between acquiring Staphylococcus saprophyticus from animals versus sexual intercourse. How are humans infected by Staphylococcus saprophyticus, and what would the symptoms of that be?
