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?
