Answer #1

If we cross the given male and female, than F1 will be,

vg+/vg e+/e (not vestigeal, not ebony, wild type).

Both of these are autosomal traits. So, both males and femals will be same, wild type in appearance.

Please rate high.

You are doing a genetics experiment with fruit flies. In your first cross, you cross two true-breeding flies (P generation). The female parent is brown and wingless and the male parent is black with normal wings. All of the flies in the F1 generation are brown and have normal wings. In the following questions, please indicate the alleles associated with dominant phenotypes by uppercase letters and alleles associated with recessive phenotypes by lowercase letters. Assume the genes are not found...

In a cross between a white-eyed female with two X chromosomes and one Y chromosome (XwXwY) with a red-eyed male, the majority of the males have white eyes and the majority of the females have red eyes. However, rare red-eyed males and white-eyed females are present as well. What is the most likely chromosomal constitution of the red-eyed males and white-eyed females resulting from this cross? Notes: Xw is recessive (white) and X+ is dominant (red). The answer is not...
