The Results Below Are from an Interrupted Conjugation Experiment Performed

The results below are from an interrupted conjugation experiment performed with an Hfr strain. Which genes could also be mapped with transduction?

A) Only argR and argG could be mapped to each other using transduction.
B) All three could be mapped to each other using transduction.
C) argR could be mapped to recA and argG could be mapped to recA but argR and argG are too close to each other to be mapped using transduction.
D) Only argG could be mapped with recA since argR is farther away from recA there would be little recombination that would include all three genes together and so argR could not be reliably mapped using transduction.
