Fruit flies have 75 percent of genes that carry diseases to humans. scientists use them in genetic studies for this reason and to learn how humans genetically pass on common genetic traits to their offspring.

The fungus Melampsora lini causes a disease known as flax rust. Different strains of M. lini cause varying degrees of the rust d
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Using the Mendelian approach to solve this question, we will understand that the mendelian approach has a pattern for inherited traits.

From the data set given, the total number of the population is:

43+9+32+110 = 194

However, their ratio are being calculated as follows:

43/194 = 0.22

9/194 = 0.05

32/194 = 0.16

110/194 = 0.57

After comparison with the Mendelian's approach, we realize that these results seem to be similar to the 9:3:3:1 ratio.

i.e.  

3/16 = 0.18

1/16 = 0.06

3/16 = 0.18

9/16 = 0.56

The inheritance pattern obviously dictates that the flax experiment proceeds in the pattern found in the Mendelian's Approach and the resistance of the two different strains were arbitrated by two traits.
