Transcribed Image Text:### Genetics of Shell Banding and Color in *Capaea nemoralis*
**Problem 3:**
In the snail *Capaea nemoralis*, an autosomal allele causing a banded shell (\( B^B \)) is recessive to the allele for an unbanded shell (\( B^0 \)). Genes at a different locus determine the background color of the shell: yellow (\( C^Y \)) is recessive to brown (\( C^{Bw} \)).
- A banded, yellow snail is crossed with a homozygous brown, unbanded snail.
- The \( F_1 \) generation are then crossed with banded, yellow snails, in what is known as a test cross.
**Question a:**
- What will the results of the test cross be if the loci that control banding and color are linked with no crossing over?
