l Metro by T-Mobile 1 2:29 PM • 16% I In flies, long wings are a dominant trait, and short wings are a recessive trait. Medium wings are the heterozygous trait. Based on this information, if a homozygous long-winged fly is crossed with another a heterozygous'fly, their offspring will have which percentages for long, medium, and short wings? Assume random chromosome segregation. 17) A) 25% long, 75% medium, 0% short B) 50% long, 25% medium, 25% short 50% long, 50% medium, 0% short D) 100% medium, 0% long, 0% short

Activity 1 Write down the correct biological term for each of the following descriptions in the space provided. DESCRIPTION TERM 1.1 A cross involving a single characteristic 1.2 A cross involving two characteristics A representation that traces the transmission of a characteristic over many generations of a family Allele that influences the phenotype only when in the homozygous combination but not in the heterozygous condition 1.3 1.4 1.5 Allele that influences the phenotype whether in the homozygous or heterozygous combination 1.6 Alternative forms of a gene found at the same locus 1.7 Characteristics controlled by alleles of a gene that are located on the sex chromosomes Cross involving alleles of a gene that are equally dominant, leading to a third phenotype which is a combination of the other two phenotypes 1.8 1.9 Cross involving alleles that are neither dominant or recessive, leading to an intermediate phenotype 1.10 Cross involving characteristics controlled by dominant and…
