Q14-19 We crossed pure-bred female flies withyellow body and forked-shaped bristles with male flies extrabristles. The subsequent F1 flies showed all normal phenotypesexcept that all of the F1 males are yellow-body. We crossed againthe normal F1 females with males homozygous for yellow body, extrabristles, and forked bristles as a testcross. The number of eachcategory of F2 progeny is shown below. The mutant allele for yellowbody is y; the mutant allele for extra bristles is e; and themutant allele for forked-shaped bristles is f. The correspondingwild-type alleles for these mutant alleles are indicated with+.

19. The passage describing the breeding results has notspecified the sexes of F2. If we recalculate the observed number ofeach category based on the sex of individual F2 flies, the overallratio among the 8 categories ________ be affected by the sex,because we have setup the testcross of female F1 with the male withthe recessive ________ allele that is X-linked.

A. would, y

B. would not, y

C. would, e

D. would not, e

E. would , f

Cross 1 Female with Yellow body and Forked Bristles x Male with Extra Bristles F1 All phenotypically normal progeny Males are all Yellow body Since al males are Yellow body the y gene is on the X chromosome The Extra Bristles e and Forked Bristlesf are masked by the presence of their Wildtype alleles in the F1 progeny However since males are hemizygous for the X chromosome they display the Yellow body phenotypey Cross 2 Normal F1 Female x Male with yellow    See Answer
