No. The apterious gene is recessive.

Are apterous wings dominant or recessive?

Apterous wings are typically a recessive trait in insects. This means that an individual must inherit two copies of the apterous allele to exhibit the wingless (apterous) phenotype. If an individual has one copy of the apterous allele and one copy of the dominant allele for normal wings, they will have normal wings.


Is apterous wings sex-linked in fruit flies?

Yes, apterous wings in fruit flies are sex-linked, meaning the gene responsible for this trait is located on the sex chromosome (X or Y). In this case, apterous wings are usually associated with the X chromosome, making it more common in males (XY) than in females (XX) due to hemizygosity.

In fruit flies straight wings are dominant and curly wings are recessive. What will the generations look like?

If we cross a homozygous dominant fruit fly with straight wings (WW) and a homozygous recessive fruit fly with curly wings (ww), all offspring in the first generation (F1) will be heterozygous (Ww) and exhibit straight wings. If we then cross two F1 flies (Ww x Ww), the second generation (F2) will show a phenotypic ratio of 3 straight-winged flies to 1 curly-winged fly, resulting in about 75% straight wings and 25% curly wings.


In fruit flies straight wings (S) are dominant over curled wings. A homozygous fruit fly is crossed with a heterozygous fruit fly. A Punnett square predicts what percentage of the offspring will be he?

In this cross, all offspring will have straight wings since the homozygous fly can only pass on the dominant allele for straight wings (SS) while the heterozygous fly can pass on either straight (S) or curled wings (s). Therefore, all offspring will inherit one straight wing allele, resulting in them having straight wings.


What is the dependent variable in fruit flies?

it has wings


One fruit fly is heterozygous for long wings and the other fruit flies home is the core is for short links long wings are dominant to shortenings use the pants where to find the expected percentage of?

If one fruit fly is heterozygous for long wings and the other is homozygous for short wings, the expected percentage of their offspring having long wings would be 50%. This is because when the long-winged parent passes on the dominant long-wing allele and the short-winged parent passes on the recessive short-wing allele, the offspring would have one of each allele, resulting in the offspring having long wings.


Why do fruit flies have white eyes?

they dont well actually some fruit flies do. it depends on if they are a mutant type of fruit fly or not. there are also flies that have messed up wings, these types of flies are called vestigial. there are also fruit flies that don't even have eyes. all of these types of fruit flies are mutants and are used for testing.


Why are dumpy wings recessive or dominant trait?

Dumpy wings in fruit flies are a recessive trait. This means that an individual must inherit two copies of the dumpy wing allele (one from each parent) in order to exhibit the dumpy wing phenotype. Dominant traits, on the other hand, only require one copy of the allele to be expressed. In the case of dumpy wings, the presence of the wild-type allele (normal wings) masks the expression of the dumpy wing allele, making it recessive.
