ges to these traits. Mutant flies may have a black body and/or cinnabar eyes.

Answer:

d

Explanation:

The correct answer would be that <u>gray body and red eyes are dominant.</u>

The wild type trait  is represented by gray bodies and red eyes while the mutant trait  is represented by black body and/or cinnabar eyes. A cross between the wild type and the mutant only yield F1 offspring with wild type phenotype. This, thus, means that the wild type trait is dominant while the mutant trait is recessive.

<em>Since the wild type trait is depicted by gray body and red eyes, it means that the gray body and red eyes traits are dominant while the black body and cinnabar eyes are recessive.</em>

The correct option is d.
