You cross an AaHh worm with an aahh worm and get the followingprogeny:

16 Wild type

76 Do not produce Aldolase

82 Do not produce Hyclase

12 Produce neither Aldolase nor Hyclase

A) (3 pts) What is the haplotype for the AaHh parentalworm? Explain your answer  

B) (3 pts) What is the haplotype of the 16 wild typeworms in the F1 generation? Explain your answer

C) (6 pts) What is the map distance between the aldolaseand hyclase genes? Explain your work.
