The distance between k and e would be approximately... 

a) 6.25 cM

b) 6.6 cM

c) 4.65 cM

d) 5.0 cM

e) 11.65 cM 

37) The recessive alleles k (kidney-shaped eyes instead of wild-type round, c (cardinal-colored eyes instead
of wild type red), and e (ebony body instead of wild-type gray) identify three genes on chromosome 3 of
Drosophila. Females with kidney-shaped, cardinal-colored eyes were mated with ebony males. The F1
was wild type. When F1 females were testcrossed with kkccee males, the following progeny phenotypes
were obtained:
