Answer:
F1 Females - all wild type
F1 Males - all wild type
F2 Females - - all wild type
F2 Males - 1/2 wild type, 1/2 vermilion
Explanation:
The wild-type allele (Xᵛ⁺) is dominant over vermilion (Xᵛ), which is a sex-linked trait.
Female flies have two X chromosomes, male flies have one X and one Y chromosome.
A homozygous wild-type female fly (Xᵛ⁺Xᵛ⁺) is mated with a vermilion male fly (XᵛY).
The female parent can only produce Xᵛ⁺ gametes.
The male parent can produce either Xᵛ or Y gametes.
When gametes from both parents fuse, the F1 offspring will have the genotypes Xᵛ⁺Xᵛ (females with wild type eyes) and Xᵛ⁺Y (males with wild type eyes).
The F1 females can produce Xᵛ⁺ and Xᵛ gametes. The F1 males can produce Xᵛ⁺ and Y gametes.
When the F1 individuals interbreed, the gametes combine to give rise to the F2 offspring. The possible combination of gametes that will give the different genotypes and phenotypes in the F2 are:
- Xᵛ⁺Xᵛ⁺ females with wild type eyes
- Xᵛ⁺ Y males with wild type eyes
- Xᵛ Xᵛ⁺ females with wild type eyes
- Xᵛ Y males with vermilion eyes

Answer:
Relationship between Yucca plant and Yucca moth is OBLIGATE MUTUALISM.
Explanation:
Obligate mutualism- The mutual relationship between two partners where both partners are benefited by each other and can not survive without each other.
In case of Yucca plant and Yucca moth,they cannot survive without each other.Yucca moth larvae feed on seeds of Yucca plant and Yucca plant have a single pollinator i;e, Yucca moth. Yucca moth collects pollen from anther and fly to another flower and transfer that pollen to other flowers stigma. In this way they transfer the pollen , usually they make a hole in the ovary to lay eggs and directly transfer pollen to the inside of the stigma.
After laying eggs they mark it with some special kind of pheromone which alerts other moths not to lay egg inside the same flower or lay some eggs not much. So that they can be protected inside the flower and can be developed well.
