You are interested in studying the function of a gene, so you decide to create point mutations to help you identify important residues in the encoded protein. In the following set of triplet codons, two nucleotides are underlined, which nucleotide should be mutated to achieve your goal and why?

Dis the correct answer thats what i put and it was right 

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.
