Flour beetles may be black or bronze, and this difference in body color is due to a single gene. A flour beetle with a black body is crossed with one that has a bronze body. Half the F₁ progeny have black bodies, and the other half have bronze bodies. In the text box provided, write out a cross that could be done using these F₁ progeny to determine which trait is dominant and which is recessive. Indicate the phenotypes of the F₁ beetles you would use for your cross. Clearly indicate the outcome expected if black is dominant, and if bronze is dominant. These expected outcomes must be different if your cross is able to determine which trait is dominant. There is no need to include a Punnett Square or proposed genotypes. Organize your answer like this: If black is dominant, (F₁ phenotype) x (F₁ phenotype) > offspring phenotypic classes and proportions If bronze is dominant.... classes and proportions > offspring phenotypic
