Question
A researcher mutagenized a group of butterflies and isolated six butterflies with extra-long bodies. Each butterfly has a recessive mutation in only one gene. The researcher
performed a complementation test using the six butterflies and got the following results, where "+" is wild-type body and "-" is extra-long body.

If the line 3 butterflies are crossed with the line 5 butterflies and they produce all extra-long bodies, what do you conclude about the butterflies produced from a cross between
lines 1 and 5?
There is not enough information to determine.
None of the offspring will be mutant (extra long)
Half of the offspring would have wild-type bodies and half of the offspring would have extra-long bodies.
All of the offspring will be mutant (extra long)
