When working out genetics problems in this and succeeding chapters, always assume that members of the P1 generation are homozygous, unless the information or data you are given require you to do otherwise.

In Drosophila, gray body color is dominant to ebony body color, while long wings are dominant to vestigial wings. Assuming that the P1 individuals are homozygous, work the following crosses through the F2 generation, and determine the genotypic and phenotypic ratios for each generation.

(a) gray, long × ebony, vestigial


(b) gray, vestigial × ebony, long


(c) gray, long × gray, vestigial
