Refer to the table.In Drosophila, white (w), eosin (w^e), and wild-type red (w⁺) are multiple alleles at a single locus for eye color.This locus is on the X chromosome.A female that has eosin (pale orange) eyes is crossed with a male that has wild-type (red) eyes.All the female progeny are red-eyed; about half the male progeny have eosin eyes, and about half have white eyes.Assume the female has two X chromosomes and the male has one X and one Y. What is the order of dominance of these alleles? A) w w^e w⁺ B) w^e w w⁺ C) w⁺ w w^e D) w w⁺ w^e E) w⁺ w^e w
