Questions 9-15 are related. The drosophila alleles for purpleeyes (instead of red) and dumpy wings (instead of normal) are bothrecessive. Gene âEâ designates eye color (E: dominant, e:recessive), and gene âDâ designates wing shape (D: dominant, d:recessive). You cross a pure breeding purple eyed, normal wingedfly to a true breeding red eyed, dumpy winged fly.
9. What are the genotypes of the parental flies? (select allthat apply)
| eedd 10. What would you expect the offspring (F1) phenotypes tobe? | All purple eyed, dumpy winged |
| All red eyed, normal winged |
| All purple eyed, normal winged |
| All red eyed, dumpy winged |
| Half purple eyed normal winged, half red eyed dumpy winged |
| Half red eyed normal winged, half purple eyed dumpy winged |
| None of the above 11. You cross these F1 offspring to flies that are pure breedingfor purple eyes and dumpy wings. You get 200 offspring. 45 arepurple eyed and dumpy winged, 43 are red eyed and normal winged, 63are purple eyed and normal winged, and 49 are red eyed and dumpywinged. You think that these two genes could be on differentchromosomes but your friend tells you that he thinks they arelinked and that they are close enough to each other to have afrequency of recombinants of 0.38. If you are correct and they areon different chromosomes, how many purple eyed, normal winged flieswould you ideally expect out of your 200 offspring? Youranswer should be a whole number. 12. If your friend is correct and the genes are linked withfrequency of recombinants of 0.38 how many purple eyed, normalwinged flies would you expect? Your answer should be awhole number |
