What are inherited traits of fruit flies?
eye color (red/white) and body color (brown/yellow). In fruit flies, eye color is a sex-linked trait determined by a single gene with two alleles. Red color is dominant to white eye color. Body color is an autosomal trait determined by a single gene with two alleles, where brown is dominant to yellow. -Angela B.
Two fruit flies having the same red eye color is an example of two organisms that are heterozygous or homozygous?
Two fruit flies having the same red eye color is an example of two organisms that are homozygous for the eye color trait. If the fruit flies had different eye colors, then they would be heterozygous for the trait.
What are the 5 traits commonly used when studying genetics when using fruit flies?
eye color, body shape, eye shape, wing shape
Eye color and hair color are determined by?
Polygenic inheritance.polygenic traitsI'm sure
What is eye color controlled from?
The genetics of eye color are more complicated than previously thought. Color is determined by multiple genes. The genetics of eye color are so complex, that almost any parent-child combination of eye colors can occur.

How are babies eye color determined?
The eye color is determined by the genes of the parents.
Why is the color of the eye different from the color around the eye?
The color of the eye is determined by the amount and type of pigments in the iris of the eye.

eye color, body shape, eye shape, wing shape
Why are fruit flies an ideal organism for genetics research?
Drosophila(fruit flies) can produce plenty of offspring and have specific traits, such as eye color and body color/shape. They are easy to observe and therefore easily traced throughout the following generations.

What are the genes that control eye color called?
Eye color is a polygenic phenotypic character.Eye color is determined by amount and type of pigment in eye's iris.eye color is determined by multiple genes.EYCL1 eye color- green/blue. Gene located on chromosome 19EYCL2 eye color- brown eye colorELCL3 eye color- brown/blue. Gene located on chromosome15.

What is the location of the eye color of a fruit fly meaning which chromosome?
The locus for eye color is on the X chromosome.
What might biologists learn from studying generations of fruit flies?
from studying the generation of fruit flies you can find out that some of them have white eyes, and you can do the genetics table to find out what eye color the baby's will have. It's called the study of genetics, we're learning about it this year!!!!!!
Why do people have different iris color?
The color of your eye is determined by many sets of chromosomes.
