Question

In fruit flies, curved wings are recessive to straight wings, and ebony
body is recessive to gray body. A cross was made between truebreeding flies with curved wings and gray bodies and flies with
straight wings and ebony bodies. The F1 offspring were then mated to
flies with curved wings and ebony bodies to produce an F2 generation.
A. Diagram the genotypes of this cross, starting with the parental
generation and ending with the F2 generation.
B. What are the predicted phenotypic ratios of the F2 generation?
C. Let’s suppose the following data were obtained for the F2 generation:
114 curved wings, ebony body
105 curved wings, gray body 111 straight wings, gray body
114 straight wings, ebony body
Conduct a chi square analysis to determine if the experimental data
are consistent with the expected outcome based on Mendel’s laws.
