Distance between genes is measured by frequency of recombination.

According to the question,

-Recombination frequency between a & d is highest. This means they are farthest.

-So, option 2 & 3 can be our answer

        a__________________b
-Recombination frequency between

a and b = 20%

a and c = 5%

so, a and c are close.

Hence the sequence is

a c b d

Hence, Option (3) is correct.
