Mitochondrial Mutations

A mitochondrion is a cellular organelle that serves as the site for cellular respiration and energy production (ATP or Adenosine Triphosphate). It is a double-membrane-bound organelle and is only present in eukaryotic cells.

Would appreciate help with this question please include explanation ty
We have crossed true-breeding flies today. Wild type to mutant. Their phenotypes were wt and vg se. (Let’s not worry about males and females for now, just assume both genes are autosomal, which is normal in a Mendelian experiment). The results of a cross are phenotypes. I will be asking you for numbers or a ratio of phenotype numbers you expect to see in the offspring from this cross. To answer this, you’ll need to start with the genotypes of parents, then write their gametes, then write the offspring genotypes, then get the phenotypes based on them. Predict the results of this cross: In case both mutations are recessive; In case both mutations are dominant; In case vestigial wings are recessive and the sepia eyes are dominant.

Individuals of genotype AaBb were mated to individuals of genotype aabb. One thousand offspring were counted, with the following results: 474 Aabb, 480 aaBb, 20 AaBb, and 26 aabb.

How many map units apart are they?

My Question is what is the probability their first child will have hemophilia and drawn pedigrees for family members with genotypes. My explantion so far: A man has both X and Y chromosomes as sex chromosomes in his body. Here, though the brother of the man is hemophiliac, a man can’t be a carrier of hemophilia. So, it can be said that his chromosome is “XnY”.Here, the “n” stands for “normal”.Though the paternal uncle is hemophiliac, a man cannot be a carrier of hemophilia, his niece will not be a career. So it can be said that the woman is also not a carrier and has the “XnX” chromosome.So, as the mother is not a carrier, their first child does not have a chance of having hemophilia. This can be determined as it is known that there is no hidden carrier of hemophilia in the family.
