Please help me out with these two questions! Will leave a good review if the answer is concise. QUESTION 1: You cross true-breeding male flies with smooth abdomens with true-breeding female flies with cinnabar eyes and corrugated wings. The F1 offspring all appear phenotypically wild type. You allow 20 of these F1 female flies to mate with 20 male flies that have smooth abdomens, corrugated wings, and cinnabar eyes. You observe the following offspring: - 213 corrugated and cinnabar - 34 corrugated wings - 133 smooth abdomen, corrugated, and cinnabar - 109 cinnabar eyes - 31 smooth abdomen and cinnabar eyes - 157 wild type - 218 smooth abdomen - 105 smooth abdomens and corrugated wings Determine the correct gene order and map the relative distances. Calculate the crossover interference: Male fruit flies are unusual in that during meiosis their chromosomes do not undergo crossovers. If we took 20 of the F1 phenotypically wild type male flies from this cross and allowed them to mate with females that had smooth abdomens, corrugated wings, and cinnabar eyes, what phenotypes would you expect in the progeny and in what ratios? QUESTION 2: A female cat with orange fur and a male cat with black fur have a litter of 5 kittens. Two male kittens have a single-color coat of fur, one male kitten has a tortoiseshell coat (patches of orange and black), and two female kittens have tortoiseshell coats. Which kitten is the product of an unusual genetic event? What type of genetic event occurred and in which parent? At which stage did it occur in this parent? The two female tortoiseshell kittens are identical twins. Would their coat patterns be identical? Why or why not? What coat color do you expect the first two male kittens mentioned to have?
