B. In fruit fly, Drosophila, the genes for vestigial wings, white eyes, and black body ar linked. These genes are recessive. A fruit fly strain that is homozygous for white eyes wa crossed with a strain that is homozygous for vestigial wings and black body. The F1 wer then testcrossed, and the resulting offspring were as follows: Phenotype Number wild type (dominant for all traits) 9 white eyes 1779 vestigial wings 241 black body 131 vestigial wings, black body 1654 vestigial wings, white eyes 118 white eyes, black body 252 vestigial wings, white eyes, black body 13 1. Calculate the map distance between the genes for a. vestigial wings and white eyes b. vestigial wings and black body c. white eyes and black body 2.

Inheritance and Mendelian Genetics

Inheritance means the passing of traits to offspring from parents. These traits could be passed either through asexual reproduction or sexual reproduction. The offspring receives the genetic material from the parents. Mendelian inheritance is a certain biological inheritance that follows the rules and principles laid down by Gregor Mendel in 1865. The initial hypothesis was considered wrong, but other inheritance theories modified the concept of inheritance and thus genetics.
