Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In a reciprocal cross, the sexes are interchanged relative to the trait. This means that if the original cross was male A and female B, the reciprocal cross would be male B and female A. This allows for the examination of any potential sex-linked traits and ensures that any observed differences are not due to sex.
