There are four possible combinations of the traits we are exploring:

Red Eyes - Normal Wings
Sepia Eyes - Normal Wings
Red Eyes - Wingless
Sepia Eyes - Wingless
(100 flies with dominate trait with red eyes and normal wings)

Calculate the percentage of offspring flies that had phenotype # 4 .

Respuesta :

The percentage of offspring flies that had phenotype #4 is 40%

What is phenotype?

The phenotype of the offspring flies includes the features of an individual fly that results from its genotype interaction with the environment.

To calculate the percentage of offspring flies that had phenotype #4, we consider the following values:

  • The number of offspring flies that had phenotype #4
  • The total number of offspring flies

Given that the question is incomplete, I will make the following assumptions

  • 10 offspring flies has phenotype #4
  • The total number of offspring flies is 25

The percentage of offspring flies that had phenotype #4 is calculated using:

[tex]p =\frac{10}{25} \times 100\%[/tex]

This gives

[tex]p =\frac{1000}{25}\%[/tex]

Divide

[tex]p =40\%[/tex]

Hence, the percentage of offspring flies that had phenotype #4 is 40%
