Part I: The F 1 Generation<br />

2. Determine the genotype of the fl ies use for the P<br />

generation.<br />

3. Construct a table to record your results.<br />

4. Use a computer simulation program or obtain results<br />

for the F1 generation from your teacher. Record the<br />

results in your table.<br />

5. Before beginning Part II, complete the Analysis section<br />

of the investigation for Part I.<br />

Part II: The F2 Generation<br />

6. Determine the genotype of the fl ies for the F1 cross.<br />

7. Construct a table to record your results.<br />

8. Use a computer simulation program or obtain results<br />

for the F2 generation from your teacher. Record the<br />

results in your table.<br />

Analyze and Interpret<br />

Part I<br />

1. From the data you recorded on the appearance of the<br />

fl ies in the F1 generation, which trait is dominant?<br />

Explain your answer.<br />

2. Given your response to question 1, form a hypothesis<br />

about the phenotypic ratio that you will observe in the<br />

F2 generation.<br />

Part II<br />

3. Calculate an actual phenotypic ratio of the F2 generation from your results.<br />

A B<br />

Two forms of body colour in fruit flies are black (A) and yellow (B).<br />

Conclude and Communicate<br />

4. Describe the inheritance pattern for the trait you<br />

studied in this investigation.<br />

5. How does the actual phenotypic ratio you obtained<br />

compare to the theoretical phenotypic ratio? Account<br />

for any diff erences.<br />

Extend Further<br />

6. INQUIRY In this investigation, you tracked the<br />

inheritance pattern of one sex-linked trait. Design an<br />

investigation that would track the inheritance of one<br />

of these traits and the autosomal trait of normal versus<br />

vestigial wings. Describe the results you expect.<br />

7. RESEARCH Drosophila melanogaster has been used<br />

extensively in genetics research. What other traits have<br />

been studied in Drosophila? On which chromosomes<br />

are the genes for these traits located?<br />
