You are performing a series of experiments on fruit flies. You have a true breeding population of flies with red eyes, and a true breeding population of white eyes. You breed the population of flies to each other to get an F1 generation. In this F1 generation, 75% of the flies have Red eyes, 25% of the flies have white eyes. All the female flies have red eyes, half of the male flies have white eyes and the other half have red eyes. A statistically significant number of baby flies were produced in this cross. 1) What is that number? 2) What is the genotype ratio of the F1 generation? Give the genotypes.
