PROBLEM SET #1:: The parental genotypes for a series of crosses are wild-type male fruit flies mated to females with white eyes (wh) and miniature (min) wings. The phenotypes of the F1 generation were wild-type females, and males with white eyes, and miniature wings. These flies were allowed to mate with each other and produced the following offspring: Red eyes, long wings White eyes, miniature wings Red eyes, miniature wings White eyes, long wings 770 716 401 318 Total 2205 A. Are these genes linked? Why or why not? Your answer should diagram a cross to support your decision. *
