Genes C, D, and E are found along the same chromosome. Gene C is 5 map units from gene D, and gene D is 9 map units from gene E. Gene C is 14 map units from gene E. With regard to crossing over among these three genes, which of the following statements is correct?

With regard to a maternal effect gene, a mother is dd and her haploid oocyte (d) is fertilized by a sperm carrying the D allele.  Which gene products would be found in this fertilized oocyte?

A fruit fly with a diploid set of autosomes has one X chromosome but no Y chromosome. This fly would be

In mice, a true-breeding female with a normal tail is crossed to a true-breeding male with a short tail. All of the F1 offspring have normal tails. The F1 female offspring are then crossed to true-breeding males with a short tail. All of the F2 offspring have normal tails. These are observations are consistent with

Let’s suppose that three genes affecting eye color, body color, and wing length are on the same chromosome in fruit flies. In a test cross, if the number of recombinant offspring involving eye color and wing length is much higher compared to body color and eye color, these results suggest that
