In Drosophila melanogaster many eye color mutations are known. One such recessive mutation is called brown (bw) and gives brown eyes instead of the wild type dark red eyes. Another recessive mutation is scarlet (st) which gives bright red eyes. The bw st double mutant has white eyes. A brown-eyed male was crossed to a scarlet- eyed female. The F1 progeny were wildtype. When the F1 males were test-crossed to bw/bw st/st females the following progeny phenotypes were produced: 1/4 wildtype, 1/4 brown, 1/4 scarlet, 1/4 white. These results show that the two genes are? Select all that apply a)linked and 25cM apart b)sex linked c)linked d)assorting independently Please answer asap and in short and content should not be palgarised please answe
