A geneticist is using a three-point testeross to map three linked Drosophila recessive mutations called a, b, and c, where a is associated with anomalous gait, b is associated with buckled wings, and c is associated with curved bristles. She first crosses homozygous anomalous, buckled flies to homozygous curved flies. Next, she testcrosses the Fi progeny to anomalous, buckled, curved flies. She obtains 1000 progeny distributed as shown. From this data, calculate the map distance between b and c.

A geneticist is using a three-point testeross to map three linked Drosophila recessive mutations called a, b, and c, where a
is associated with anomalous gait, b is associated with buckled wings, and c is associated with curved bristles. She first
crosses homozygous anomalous, buckled flies to homozygous curved flies. Next, she testcrosses the Fi progeny to
anomalous, buckled, curved flies. She obtains 1000 progeny distributed as shown. From this data, calculate the map
