Question

The genetic identity of the female parent is RrGg and the genetic identity of the male parent is Rrgg. They produce 320 offspring together from a single mating:

57 red-eyed females with grey bodies, 61 red-eyed females with yellow bodies, 22 brown-
eyed females with grey bodies, 20 brown-eyed females with yellow bodies.
59 red-eyed males with grey bodies, 63 red-eyed males with yellow bodies, 20 brown-eyed
males with grey bodies, 18 brown-eyed males with yellow bodies.

Show the simultaneous transmission of the two genes involved to give rise to the progeny given with the use of genetic diagrams and summaries as required. (Hint: you are only required
to show the simultaneous transmission from the P to F1 generations)
