- What makes the mutant different from the wild type?
- Why did Morgan use fruit flies to do his experiments?
- How are sex-linked and X-linked traits different?
- How common are Y-linked traits? What is their function?
- How many copies does a female offspring need to have to display the trait? How many does a male need?
- What makes a calico cat look the way she does?
Homework Answers
Wild type is the characterstics of an individual which are seen in natural populations​.
Mutant type is the characterstics of a individual who has different traits than other people in the same population.
Wild type shows less contribution to evolution where as mutant type shows high evolution.
2)Morgan used fruit flies Beacuse they also consists of 75% of the genes which carry diseases as same as humans.And they are inexpensive and maintance is easy. And they are fast to grow and easy to maintain.

Fruit flies normally have dull red eyes. Some fruit flies have white eyes due to mutation in a gene on the X-chromosome. The white eyed phenotype is X-linked recessive. The sex chromosomes in fruit flies are: females, normally XX; males, normally XY. If a white-eyed female (mutant phenotype) mates with a red-eyed male (normal or wild- type phenotype), what is the likelihood that their female offspring will have red eyes? Parents: white-eyed female X red-eyed male Select one: a. O...

Fruit flies normally have dull red eyes. Some fruit flies have white eyes due to a mutation in a gene on the X-chromosome. The white eyed phenotype is X-linked recessive. The sex chromosomes in fruit flies are: females, normally XX; males, normally XY. If a true breeding red-eyed female (normal or wild-type phenotype) mates with a white- eyed male (mutant phenotype), what is the likelihood that their male offspring will have white eyes?

Required information Fruit flies normally have red eyes. Seven different true-breeding strains of fly with white eyes have been identified (A-G). In each strain, the white eye trait is due to an autosomal recessive allele. It is possible all seven strains have mutations in the same gene. Alternatively, they may have mutations in different genes. To determine how many genes are involved in eye color in these flies, pair-wise crosses are performed between each strain. The offspring phenotypes resulting from...

In Drosophila (fruit flies) the genes how, dumpy and ebony are located on chromosome 3. LOF = loss of function. Flies homozygous for a LOF mutation (no gene product made) in ebony have dark black bodies. Flies homozygous for a LOF mutation (no gene product made) in dumpyhave truncated (short) wings. Flies homozygous for a partial LOF mutation (some gene product made but significantly less than normal) in how have wings that will not fold down (held out wings; that's...
