Concept explainers
Fruit flies can have straight wings (S) or curly wings (s), and they can have be female XX or male XY.
(A) For a standard monohybrid cross (Ss ´ Ss), what proportion of the offspring will have the genotype ss? (Express the proportion as a simple fraction)
(B) For the following cross (SsXX ´ SsXY), what proportion of the offspring will have the genotype Ss? (Express the proportion as a simple fraction)
(C) What proportion will have the genotype XX? (Express the proportion as a simple fraction)
(D) What proportion will have the genotype SsXX? (Express the proportion as a simple fraction)

S denoting for straight wings is a Dominant or wild type trait. And s denotes recessive trait for curly wings.
Female -XX
Male -XY

ID 1 1 2 2 Gt: AaBbDd Loci A/a and D/d are on chromosome 1 and locus B/b is on chromosome 2. Explain how a gamete containing the alleles A, D and b may be produced by meiosis. Refer specifically to meiotic events occurring during Prophase I, Metaphase I, Anaphase I and Anaphase II. (NB: remember to refer to the organism above).
