In 1910, Morgan did a series of experiments with the fruit fly Drosophila, an organism where females are XX and males are XY. Wh

en a mutant male fly with white eyes was crossed with a wild-type female with red eyes, none of the F1 progeny had white eyes but 18% of the F2 flies had white eyes. Unexpectedly, all of these white-eyed F2 flies were males. From these results, Morgan concluded that the white eye trait is caused by a recessive allele located on the X chromosome. Instead of fruit flies, suppose Morgan had done his experiments with grasshoppers, where females are XX and males are XO. In this case, if a male with a recessive X-linked trait was crossed with a wild-type female, what would you expect among the F2 progeny?

A pea plant with purple flowers (and unknown genotype) is crossed with a pea plant with white flowers. one-half of the offspring
Archy [21]
The genotypes of the parents are Aa (heterozygous) and aa (recessive homozygous).  
 For example:  
 If the purple flower is dominant phenotype, then A is a dominant allele for it and Aa is a genotype which will give the purple colour.
In this case, white flower is recessive phenotype with aa genotype.
If we cross Aa x aa
<span>The offspring is going to be Aa Aa aa aa (half purple and half white)</span>
