Part C: Choose the Genotype of the Parents You will use Punnett squares to predict the probability that two parents of your species will pass a particular trait to their offspring. Each parent has two alleles for a particular gene, one on each homologous chromosome.

To prepare to make the Punnett squares, write down the genotypes of the parents for the three traits you’ll be predicting.

Example:

Mother: YyIRiPF
Father: YyIWiPF

Idk little ngr try paying attention in school and you would know ngr

The answer would be c, white eyes are homozygous recessive. in the early 1900s, morgan conducted several experiments with vinegar  flies (drosophila). one  sample revealed an anomaly: a  white-eyed, single male fly. he attempted to breed this fly with the typical red-eyed females. the offspring were all red-eyed. using flies from this new generation (brother-sister pairs)  produced some red-eyed and a few white-eyed flies. the white-eyed were all male. in later experiments, he was able to produce white-eyed females. this proved that white eyes are not lethal to either sex (ruling out a and b). since the percentage of white eyes to red eyes is so low, white eyes are not a dominant trait. it would be a recessive trait.
