Assume that the genes for tan body and bare wings are 15 map units apart on chromosome II in Drosophila.Assume also that a tan-bodied,bare-winged female was mated to a wild-type male and that the resulting F₁ phenotypically wild-type females were mated to tan-bodied,bare-winged males.Of 1000 offspring,what would be the expected phenotypes,and in what numbers would they be expected?
