In fruit flies, a specific gene mutation causes the wings to become malformed. These wings are called vestigial because they do
not function properly. The mutated allele for vestigial wings (v) is recessive to the allele for functioning wings (V). Two fruit flies that are heterozygous for wing shape are crossed, resulting in many offspring.
