The Cross of Straight Winged Fruit Flies With Nubbin Winged Flies

Conclusion
Overall this experiment was a pretty good success. It showed that straight wings are dominant to nubbin wings and neither one are not sex linked, just like my hypothesis. The fruit flies that were used in this experiment are heterozygous but we can't tell by looking at the phenotypes. We can use common knowledge to figure it out but we need to look at their chromosomes to find the real answer. The reason why we know this is because if one parent gives a dominant gene and the other gives a recessive gene, then that would make the flies heterozygous for straight wings.
There was one major reason why this experiment was performed is, because Homo sapiens (humans) have genes and traits that are passed down from generation to generation, but the reason why we didn't use human traits is because there are 23 chromosomes and that there are more then one trait per chromosome. …
