What will be the eye color of the flies in the F1 generation?

Group of answer choices

Males: Maroon, Females: Red or Maroon

Males: Maroon, Females: Maroon

Males: Red, Females: Red

Males: Maroon, Females: Red

Males: Red, Females: Maroon

In Drosophila, the X-linked recessive mutation vermillion (v) causes bright red eyes, in contrast to the brick-red eyes caused by the wild-type allele. A separate autosomal recessive mutation, brown (bw), causes flies to have brown eyes. Flies with both mutations have no eye pigmentation and are white-eyed. Determine the F1 and F2 phenotypic ratios for each sex from the following crosses: (a) vermillion females X brown males (b) wild-type females X white-eyed males

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...
