A parental cross between homozygous cinnabar flies (cnbw+/cnbw+) and homozygous brown flies (cn+bw/cn+bw) is done. Use a Punnett square to show how the F1 cross will not produce homozygous double mutant flies in the F2 generation.

Expert Solution

In this question first step is to write genoype of parents.second step to form gametes of parents .third step to make F1 punnett square.fourth step is to write progeny genoype of F1 then fifth step is to make F2 punnett square in which we identify Homozygous double mutant flies.

Cinnabar eyes (cn) and reduced bristles (rd) are autosomal recessive characters in Drosophila. A homozygous wild-type female was crossed to a reduced, cinnabar male, and the F1 males were then crossed to the F1 females to obtain the F2. Of the 400 F2 offspring obtained, 292 were wild type, 9 were cinnabar, 7 were reduced, and 92 were reduced and cinnabar. Briefly explain (2 sentences) these results and estimate the distance between the cn and rd loci.

Suppose that you are working with flies that are segregating three traits. You cross a homozygous truncated, vestigial, shaven fly with a homozygous wild-type, apterous, spineless fly and the F1 flies are all wild-type, apterous, spineless. You next backcross the F1 flies to a truncated, shaven, vestigial parent. The progeny from this type of cross are shown below: truncated apterous shaven 94 truncated vestigial shaven 425 truncated apterous spineless 46 truncated vestigial spineless 19 wild-type apterous shaven 16 wild-type vestigial...

At a particular locus, the homozygous genotype is lethal. We observe a cross between two heterozygous parents. Which of the following will not be true for their offspring: a) All offspring will look the same b) The genotype and phenotype ratios will be the same c) All offspring will be heterozygous d) Half of the offspring will die e) Genotype and phenotype ratio will be 1:2:1 what ratio would this offspring be?

Use this information to answer Questions 1 - 4 below. You cross two homozygous pea plants. One parent has round peas, terminal flowers, violet petals, and constricted pods, while the other parent expresses the alternate phenotypes of wrinkled peas, axial flowers, white petals, and full pods. The four traits are controlled by four different genes, each on a separate chromosome.In the F1, all plants have round peas, axial flowers, violet petals, and full pods. In the F2, all possible combinations...
