Summary Introduction

To determine:

The genotypes, phenotypes and expected proportions of the F1 and F2 generation. When a “homozygous gray female” is crossed with a yellow male and F1 are intercrossed to produce F2 progeny.

Introduction:

Drosophila melanogaster is a species of fly, these species is known generally as the common fruit fly or vinegar fly. They have XX-XO system of sex determination, females possess two X chromosomes, whereas male possess a single X chromosome.

In a population of Jackalopes (pictured below), horn length will vary between 0.5 and 2 feet, with the mean length somewhere around 1.05 feet. You pick Jackalopes that have horn lengths around 1.75 feet to breed as this appears to be the optimal length for battling other Jackalopes for food. After a round of breeding, you measure the offsprings' mean horn length is 1.67. What is the heritability of horns length (h2)? Is Jackalope horn length a heritable trait? (4 pts)? 12pt v R Paragraph V BIU A श्र > B
