n corn, male sterility is controlled by maternal cytoplasmic elements. This phenotype renders the male part of the corn plants (i.e the tassel) unable to produce fertile pollen; the female parts, however, remain receptive to pollination by pollen from male fertile corn plants. However, the presence of a nuclear fertility restorer gene F restores fertility to male sterile lines sing the cardboard chips, simulate the crosses indicated below. Give the genotypes and phenotypes of the offsprings in each cross, and properly label the nucleus and the cytoplasm of each individual in the cross Legend male sterile cytoplasm Male fertile cytoplasm FF nucleus Ff nucleus ff nucleus A.

6. In Drosophila melanogaster, the wild-type eye colour is dark red. A pure-breeding mutant strain with white eyes also exists. When reciprocal crosses are made between (i) a white-eyed male a wild-type female, and (ii) a white-eyed female a wild-type male, the progeny are as follows: (1) P: White-eyed male x red-eyed female F1: red-eyed males and females F2: 100 progeny; 27 red-eved males, 24 white-eyed males, 49 red-eyed females (ii) P: red eyed male x white-eyed female F1: white-eyed males and red-eyed females F2: 100 progeny; 23 red-eved males 26 white-eyed males, 28 red-eyed females, 23 white-eyed females. How do you interpret these data?
