Expert Solution
Step 1

T.H. Morgan with the help of this experiment demonstrated the X-linked pattern of inheritance. When a particular gene is present on the autosomes of male and female then in next generation they will produce an expected phenotype and ratio as Mendelian inheritance. When the genes are present on sex chromosomes then the inheritance is deviated from the typical Mendelian ratio. T.H. Morgan demonstrated this deviation from Mendelian ration through this experiment.
