Red-green color blindness is a sex-linked recessive traits inhumans. Two people with normal color vision have a color blind son.What are the genotypes of the parents?
| a. | XCXc and XCY |
| b. | XcXc and XcY |

In mice, apricot eyes is recessive to black eyes. Tail length isgoverned by another gene, linked to the eye color gene. Long tailsis dominant to short tails. To determine the distance between thetwo genes, a double heterozygote is mated in a testcross and theclasses of progeny produced were as follows:
Apricot eyes, Long tails 33
Apricot eyes, Shorttails             20
Black eyes, Longtails                17
Black eyes, Shorttails                30
Determine the map distance between the two genes
| a. | 63 map units |
| b. | 59% |
| c. | 37 map units |
| d. | 50% |

Determine whether the heterozygous parent is in the cis or transarrangement.
