You cross a wild-type female (red eyes) with a white eyed male. Recall that the gene that controls eye color is located on the X chromosome and red (Xw+___) is dominant to white (XwXw, XwY). You observe in the offspring that half of the females are wild type and half have white eyes. The same is true for the males, half are wild type and half have white eyes. What was the female’s genotype? 1 Xw+Xw 2 Xw+Xw+ 3 XwXw 4 Xw+Y

In fruit flies, eye color is a sex-linked trait: Red is dominant to white. What are the sexes and eye colors of flies with the following genotypes: XRX' XRY- XX: XRXR: d. XY: What are the genotypes of these flies: White eyed male: White eyed, female: red eyed female (heterozygous): d. red eyed_ male: Show the cross of a white eyed female XX' with red eyed male XRY. Show cross between pure red eyed female and white eyed male What are the genotypes of the parents How may are= White eyed and male: White eyed and female: Red eyed and male: Red eyed and female:
