Question
You were given 1000 fruit flies to start a new laboratory colony. Before starting to breed your fruit
flies, you decided to determine their genetic make up. You counted approximately 360 fruit flies that
have vestigial wings, a recessive trait.
If you decide to remove all the fruit flies with vestigial wings and only breed the flies with normal
wings, what is the approximate frequency of individuals with vestigial wings in the F1 generation?
0.09
