A scientist named Thomas Hunt Morgan studied genetics in fruit flies. Specifically he looked at wild type (normal) wings versus vestigial (shortened) wings. When he crossed a wild type female with a vestigial male he expected to see 50% parental phenotypes and 50% recombinant phenotypes in the offspring. However, what he actually found was 83% parental phenotypes and 17% recombinant phenotypes. What does this suggest about the genes he was studying? How do the percentages help us determine this?

6. in domesticated cats, the following are independently assorting: normal ears (t) is dominant to tufted ears (t); curved whiskers (c) is dominant to straight whiskers (c); the presence of six toes (s) is dominant to five toes (s); gene for hair length is an x-linked codominant. the three phenotypes for hair length are long (xhxh), medium (xhxh), and short (xhxh); medium is the heterozygous condition. given two parents: ttccssxhxh x ttccssxhy how many different gametes could be formed in the female cat with respect to these four traits? how many phenotypes are possible in the offspring from this mating?
