Homework Answers
Ans. Short bristles are dominant to long bristles. [ As in Cross 1 all progenies have short bristles]
The bristle length gene is X-linked. [ even one gene controlling the short bristle length is able to express itself, so the male flies carrying that X-chromosome show the short bristle phenotype].

A virgin Drosophila female whose thorax bristles are very short is mated with a males having normal (long) bristles. The F1 progeny are 1/3 short-bristle females, 1/3 long bristle females, and 1/3 long bristle males. A cross of the F1 long bristle females with their brothers gives only long bristle F2 progeny. A cross of short bristle females with their brothers gave 1/3 long bristle females, 1/3 short bristle females, and 1/3 long bristle males. Explain what is going on...

We crossed pure-bred female flies with yellow body and
forked-shaped bristles with male flies extra bristles. The
subsequent F1 flies showed all normal phenotypes except that all of
the F1 males are yellow-body. We crossed again the normal F1
females with males homozygous for yellow body, extra bristles, and
forked bristles as a testcross. The number of each category of F2
progeny is shown below. The mutant allele for yellow body is y; the
mutant allele for extra bristles is...

You begin working in a genetics lab that uses Drosophila and
find that a previous student has left behind a bottle of flies that
have a yellow (instead of brown) body with no information about the
mutation that leads to the yellow body color. You first determine
that these flies are true breeding, and then set up some crosses.

males. In the F1s, all of the females have brown...
The genes for sepia eye color, short bristles, and dark body coloration are on the same...
The genes for sepia eye color, short bristles, and dark body coloration are on the same chromosome of Drosophila melanogaster. Each gene has two alleles: wild type, which is dominant, or mutant, which is recessive. se+ is dominant and causes red eyes; se is recessive and causes sepia eyes sb+ is dominant and causes long bristles; sb is recessive and causes short bristles b+ is dominant and causes gray body coloration; b is recessive and causes dark...

(1) A Drosophila male from a true-breeding stock with scabrous eyes and normal bristles was mated with a female from a true-breeding stock with normal eyes and javelin bristles. Both scabrous eyes and javelin bristles are autosomal recessive mutant traits. The F1 progeny all had normal eyes and normal bristles. F1 females from this cross were mated with males with both scabrous eyes and javelin bristles. a. Write all the possible phenotypic classes of the progeny that could be produced...

The following Drosophila crosses were performed Cross 1 Parents: white-eyed straight winged male x red-eyed; curly winged female Progeny: all red-eyed flies, half of which are curly winged Cross 2 (reciprocal cross) Parents: red-eyed curly winged male x white-eyed straight winged female Progeny: white-eyed males and red-eyed females, half of each have curly wings. Test crosses with the curly winged progeny from cross 1 and 2 to homozygous straight winged flies resulted in all half curly and half straight winged...

6. In Cross 1, a yellow eyed, long wing fruit fly from a pure breeding strain is mated to a red eye, short wing fruit fly from a pure breeding strain. All of their offspring (F1) had red eyes and long wings. In Cross 2, one of the F1 offspring is mated to a fly with yellow eyes and short wings, and this cross gave the following F2 population: 194 flies with long wings and red eyes, 796 flies with...

genetics: sorted independently and completely linked
Analyze the following fruit fly cross. In this cross there are two autosomal traits that are influenced by two distinct genes and the F2 generation came from crossing an F1 male with an F1 female. P: true breeding grey eyed; brown bodied males x true breeding red eyed; black bodied females F1: all offspring are red eyed; brown bodied F2: ? When the Fy flies are allowed to self cross, what percentage of F2...

A cross was made between a male fruit fly with purple eyes and two different female flies with red eyes. The first female produced 41 progeny that all had red eyes, whereas the second female produced 18 progeny with red eyes and 21 progeny with purple eyes. a.
