The process whereby organisms better adapted to their environment tend to survive and produce more offspring. The theory of its action was first fully expounded by Charles Darwin and is now believed to be the main process that brings about evolution.

Answer:

Those who adapt, survive. Those who don't adapt, die off. Offspring with healthy mutations, (evolution), outlive their siblings who slowly die off in ways from the mundane to the horrifying. They have children who then repeat this process. It is a dog-eat-dog world.

The following F2 phenotypic data was obtained from a Drosophila testcross using an F1 offspring. Assume red eye and brown body a
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

The genotype of the F1 was wy+/w+y.

Explanation:

One of the given options has a typo: the red eye-brown body offspring count should be 56 instead of 561.

<u>We have two genes with two alleles each:</u>

Red eyes (w+) is dominant over white eyes (w).

Brown body (y+) is dominant over yellow body (y).

The phenotypes of the F2 tesulting from a test cross (F1 x wy/wy) are:

  • wy+/ey (white-eye, brown body): 670
  • w+y/wy (red-eye, yellow body): 650
  • wy/wy (white-eye, yellow body): 38
  • w+y+/wy (red-eye, brown body 56

If the genes w and y are linked, two phenotypes in the F2 will be much more abundant than the other two. Recombination during meiosis is a rare event, so the most abundant phenotypes are the parentals (the ones present in the F1 parent).

Every individual in the offpsring has a <em>wy</em> chromosome, as this was the gamete inherited from the test cross individual.

In this case, the most abundant gametes are wy+ and w+y, so the genotype of the F1 was wy+/w+y.

Notice how when recombination occurs in the F1 parent, the recombinant gametes appear: wy and w+y+, which are the less abundant in the F2 progeny.
