Technically A and B, but A is more true, so it is the 'correct' answer.
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.
Incomplete dominance produces a new heterozygous phenotype such as the purple color in this example
On a time graph the line will be flat. on a distance the line will increase at a predictible rate
When an object is heated the motion of the particles increases as the particles become more energetic. If it is cooled the motion of the particles decreases as they lose energy.
