![]() Red eye color is most likely dominant because the P generation was a purebread red, and a purebread sepia fly, and their offspring was all heterozygous red. Also, certain colors are not restricted to a certain gender. Prediction: Since the P generation and its F1 offspring is red eyed, and the F1 generation had some heterozygous flies, it can be predicted that the eye color is an autosomal trait. If the P generation consists of a purebread red eyed fly(dominant) and a purebread sepia eyed fly (recessive), then the F1 generation will be heterozygous and produce an F2 generation with mostly red eyed, but some sepia eyed flies. The eye color data supports past genetics problems because it can be predicted, and used in Punnett squares to aid in the prediction. melonogaster are useful because they are easily cultured and they reproduce very quickly. The purpose of this study is to get an accurate look on how genetics work, and to practice determining the different traits within the species.
