Assume that on rare occasions the attached X chromosomes in female gametes become unattached. Based on the parental phenotypes in Problem , what outcomes in the F1 generation would indicate that this has occurred during female meiosis?

An attached-X female fly, S Y (see the “Insights and Solutions” box), expresses the recessive X-linked white-eye mutation. It is crossed to a male fly that expresses the X-linked recessive miniature-wing mutation. Determine the outcome of this cross in terms of sex, eye color, and wing size of the offspring.
