What gamete must be donated by the father monster, and what is its probability?

a) g l — 12.5%
b) g l — 25%
c) g l — 75%
d) g l — 37.5%
Two phenotypically wild-type monsters with the allele arrangements depicted below were crossed and 400 offspring were produced. The genes for
color and size are inherited in a autosomal recessive manner and are on the same chromosome. g is the recessive color gene, which produces a
green monster; I is the recessive size gene that produces a long monster. Wild-type monsters are normal size and normal color (L, G). The
recombination frequency between the G/g and L/I locus is 25%.

Follow-up Question

You want to estimate how many of the 400 offspring would be green and long.  In order to do this calculation, you need to first determine which gametes come from each parent.

 

What gamete must be donated by the mother monster, and what is its probability?  

Two phenotypically wild-type monsters with the allele arrangements depicted below were crossed and 400 offspring were produced. The genes for color and size are inherited in a autosomal recessive manner and are on the same chromosome. g is the recessive color gene, which produces a green monster; l is the recessive size gene that produces a long monster. Wild-type monsters are normal size and normal color (L, G). The recombination frequency between the G/g and L/l locus is 25%.
