Question
15-16. In the fruit fly, vestigial (tiny) wings and hairy body are produced by recessive
genes. The normal alleles, long wings and hairless body, are dominant. If a vestigial-
winged male heterozygous for hairless is crossed with a hairy female heterozygous
for long wings, what will be the phenotypic ratio of the F1?
F2Phenotypes = 1/4 normal wings/hairless 1/4 normal wings/hairy 1/4 vestigial
wings/hairless 1/4 vestigial wings/hairy = 1:1:1:1 ratio
F1 Phenotypes = 1/4 normal wings/hairless 1/4 normal wings/hairy 1/4 vestigial
wings/hairless 1/4 vestigial wings/hairy = 1:1:1:1 ratio
F1 Genotypes = 1/4 NnHh 1/4 Nnhh 1/4 nnHh 1/4 nnhh = 1:1:1:1 ratio
F1 Phenotypes = All normal wings/hairy = 1:0 ratio
