You conduct a series of two-point mapping crosses involving five genes located on chromosome III and obtain the following percentage of recombinant offspring: h-cu eyg-h eyg-cu rai-eyg rai-h rai-cu th-cu th-h th-eyg th-rai
23.5% 9.0% 14.5% 18.5% 9.5% 33.0% 6.8% 16.7% 7.7% 26.2%
Considering that rai is near the end of chromosome III, construct a map of these genes. Drag gene names to blue targets and map distances to pink targets.
a. 6.8
b. 7.7
c. 9.0
d. 9.5

1. The genes for miniature wings (m) and garnet eyes (g) are approximately 8 map units apart on chromosome 1 in Drosophila. Phenotypically wild-type females (m+g / mg+) were mated to miniature-winged males with garnet eyes (mg / mg). Which of the following phenotypic classes reflect offspring that were generated as a result of a crossover event?
a. miniature wings,
b. wild-type eyesminiature wings,
c. garnet eyeswild-type wings,
d. garnet eyeswild-type wings,
e. wild-type eyes
2. If 800 offspring were produced from the cross, in what numbers would you expect the following phenotypes?
a. wild-type wings, wild-type eyes :.
b. miniature wings, wild-type eyes :.
c. wild-type wings, garnet eyes :.
d. miniature wings, garnet eyes:.
