This Drosophila program does not allow you to choose the number of offspring produced by each cross. For each cross, if you were able to choose a different number of offspring produced: 100, then 1000, then 10,000, what would you expect from your results? What effect would you expect from varying the number of offspring? In the cross that produced 10,000 offspring, would you expect the ratios obtained to conform more closely to the expected 3:1 ratio?
Homework Answers
Expectations from the result would be that we will be able to test our hypothesis and test for Hardy Weinberg equilibrium very well in different number of offsprings.
The greater the size of offsprings the more accurate the data would be , soexpactation from varying mber is that we would be able to able to get better accuracy results.
Yes, in the 10000 offsprings the ratio would be moving closer to 3:1 as the sample size would be bigger here and such ratio results to be accurate require large sample sizes.

The phenotype of vestigial (short) wings (vg) in Drosophila melanogaster is caused by an autosomal recessive mutant allele that independently assorts with an autosomal recessive mutant allele for hairy (h) body. A parental cross was made between a fly that is homozygous for normal wings with a hairy body and a fly with vestigial wings that is homozygous for normal body hair. The wild-type F1 flies were crossed to each other and produced 1536 offspring. The phenotypes of the F2...

1) For the Drosophila red/white cross, you crossed red females and white males (w'w, wy). a) Draw the Punnett Square for this cross (F1). What is the ratio of red females:red males? b) Suppose in the F1 generation, you observed 70 red females and 30 red males. Do a Chi- Square Test to test the hypothesis of the ratio you found in part (a) above. Do you accept or reject the hypothesis? c) Draw the...

6. Drosophila have antennae on their heads. Two mutants with abnormal antennae were obtained in a mutant hunt. After establishing true breeding strains of the mutants, Sally did the following crosses. Draw conclusions from her results. Suggestion: where helpful, outline the cross as a Mendelian set-up, choose letters. a. ant 1 X wild type, produced all flies with normal antennae.

When two 12 pound F2 trees were crossed they produced offspring which all produced 12 pound fruit. However, when these offspring were crossed randomly, the fruit produced weighted from 4 to 20 pounds. What can you say about the possible genotypes of the original F2 trees? 65 AJ. Jones...

When Mendel proposed that each trait is determined by a pair of genes, it presented a potential problem. If parents pass on both copies of a gene pair, then offspring would end up with four genes for each trait. Mendel deduced that sex cells — sperm and eggs — contain only one parental gene of...
