In Drosophila melanogaster, vestigial wings are determined by a recessive allele of a gene that is linked to a gene with a recessive allele that determines black body color. T. H. Morgan crossed black-bodied, normal-winged females and gray-bodied, vestigial-winged males. The F1 were all gray bodied, normal winged. The F1 females were crossed to homozygous recessive males to produce testcross progeny. Morgan calculated the map distance to be 17 map units. Which of the following information is correct about the testcross progeny?

#SCPH12 I Genetics
  1. black-bodied, normal-winged flies = 17% of the total

  2. black-bodied, normal-winged flies plus gray-bodied, vestigial-winged flies = 17% of the total

  3. gray-bodied, normal-winged flies plus black-bodied, vestigial-winged flies = 17% of the total

  4. black-bodied, vestigial-winged flies = 17% of the total

DNA from Salmonella species, when digested with the restriction enzyme Xba I, gives around 15 fragments ranging from 25 kb to 680 kb This pattern of fragments, or ‘fingerprint’, is unique to that strain. If the same fingerprint is found from bacteria from other infected people, then it can be assumed that they were all infected from a common source. Thus, by comparing their eating habits, food sources, etc. the source of the infection can be traced to a restaurant, food item. The fingerprints are created and analysed by
