Question

In Drosophila, two recessive mutations - rose wings (rs) and curled wings (cu) - are located 25 cM apart on chromosome 3. What gametes, and at what frequency, would be produced by a fly with the following genotype RScu//rscu? RScu 25% ; rscu 75% RScu 37.5%; rscu 37.5%; RSCU 12.5% ; rsCU 12.5% RScu 37.5% ; rscu 37.5% ; RSrs 12.5% ; cucu 12.5% RScu 50%; rscu 50% RScu 75%; rscu 25%
