Progressive degeneration of the retina that affects night and peripheral vision is known as retinitis pigmentosa.

<h3>What is retinitis pigmentosa?</h3>
  • A collection of uncommon eye conditions known as retinitis pigmentosa affect the retina.
  • Retinitis pigmentosa causes the retinal cells to gradually deteriorate over time, resulting in visual loss.
  • RP is a hereditary condition that affects people at birth.
  • The term "retinitis pigmentosa" (RP) refers to a group of illnesses that affect the retina's light-sensitive cells and impair vision.
  • There is currently no medication to stop the course of the disease, nor is there a cure.
  • Night blindness and tunnel vision are symptoms.
  • Retinitis pigmentosa has no specific treatment.
  • However, using UV sunglasses to protect the retina in your eyes may help postpone the onset of symptoms.
  • For people with very advanced disease and severe visual loss, a retinal prosthesis (artificial retina) has been developed.

If 1000 f2 offspring are obtained, how many flies of each phenotype are expected?
aniked [119]
<span>In Drosophila + indicates wild-type allele for any gene, m is mahogany and e is ebony. Female parents are m+/m+ and males are +e/+e. F1 are m+/+e, all wild type. F1 females are crossed with me/me males - the test cross. Offspring will be : non recombinant m+/me, mahogany wild type or +e/me wild type ebony. OR recombinant me/me mahogany ebony or ++/++ wild type. As the two genes are 25 map units apart, the percentage of recombinants will be 25% and therefore percentage parental types will be 75%. 75% 1000 is 750. There are two parental types, so you would expect 375 of each. Therefore, you would expect 375 m+/me and 375 +e/me. 25% of 1000 is 250 split between two recombinants =125 of each. Therefore you would expect 135 me/me and 125 ++/++</span>
