In D. melanogaster, scarlet eyes (st), curled wings (cu), and spineless bristles (ss) are recessive traits located on chromosome III in that order. The distance between st and cu is 10 cM and the distance between cu and ss is 12 cM. The CoC for this chromosome is 1. A true-breeding female expressing scarlet eyes and spineless bristles is crossed to a true-breeding male expressing curled wings. The F1 are wild type. An F1 female is then test crossed to a male expressing all three traits. Among the F2 progeny, how often would you expect to observe flies expressing only scarlet eyes? Using the same information from above, among the F2 progeny, how often would you expect to observe flies expressing only spineless bristles? Using the same information from above, among the F2 progeny, how often would
