The same team of researchers sets up an additional cross with this same population. They cross two flies that both have brown bodies. This results in 68 offspring that all have brown bodies. What assumption(s) can they make about the genotypes of the parental flies? How should they proceed in order to address these assumptions?

Figure 8.10 In pea plants, purple flowers (P) are dominant to white (p), and yellow peas (Y) are dominant to green (y). What are the possible genotypes and phenotypes for a cross between PpYY and ppYy pea plants? How many squares would you need to complete a Punnett square analysis of this cross?
Why is it more efficient to perform a test cross with a homozygous recessive donor than a homozygous dominant donor? How could the same information still be found with a homozygous dominant donor?
What genotypes would be expected for the offspring from the following matings? What are the phenotypic ratios for each cross? Explain how you came up with this ratio?
In Figure 5-15, how are each of the following genotypesproduced?a. F+ a− c. F− a+b. F− a− d. F+ a+
For linkage analysis, a test cross is used rather than a hybrid cross. Why is this essential? Why would a hybrid cross result in incorrect estimates of genetic distance?
In a cross between mice the genotypes AB/ab  ab/ab, what is the recombination frequency if the progeny numbers are 72 AB/ab, 68 ab/ab, 17 Ab/ab, and 21 aB/ab? The alleles are shown for each chromosome, separated by a slash (/).
In a three-point testcross such as this one, why aren’t the F1 and the tester considered to be parental in calculating recombination? (They are parents in one sense.)
What will be the results of the following crosses, where N is black, n is brown, L is short hair and l is long hair. Make the tables and the corresponding explanation: 1. Crossing a Nnll woman dog with a Nnll dog. 2. Crossing a NnLl woman dog with a NnLl dog 3. Crossing a woman dog nnLl with a dog NNll
How can one use a pedigree chart to hypothesize how a certain condition is transmitted? Can a pedigree chart show probability of occurrence more accurately than the Punnett square? Why or why not?
In letter B: If the map distance equals the number of recombinant/total of offspring, wouldn't it be 24/806 x 100? Wouldn't we add both recombinants? Can you explain letter C? I don't grasp that concept well. And since I'm using my question already, would you be able to answer D. Thank you!
Table 1: F1 ebony flies - 0 F1 non-ebony flies - 560 F1 stubble flies - 560 F1 non-stubble flies - 0 The researcher collects and crosses male and female flies from the F1 generation. In the resulting offspring, F2, there are both stubble and ebony flies. Draw a Punnett Square to illustrate the F1 cross for the stubbly phenotype showing the individual gametes of each parent and the combination in the resulting offspring.
