Asked by Sarah
The gene encoding for body color in zombie flies is "X-linked". Gray bodies are the wild-type trait and blue bodies are caused by a mutation
- Set up a cross between a male with a blue body and a female who is homozygous dominant for a gray body. Indicate the geno and pheno types of the offspring.
- Set up the reciprocal cross and indicate the genotypes and phenotype of the offspring
Note: Please use wild-type/mutant nomenclature

The female has to be GG, and the male has to be bb. (Cannot be Gb.)
The above are the genotypes. Use a Punnett Square to calculate offspring.
