Four eye-color mutants in Drosophila -- apricot, brown, carnation, and purple -- are inherited as recessive traits. Red is the dominant wild-type color of fruit-fly eyes. Eight crosses (A to H) are made between parents from pure-breeding lines. The results are shown in the table.

Part A

Which of these eye-color mutants are X-linked recessive?

Check all that apply.

Part B

Which of these eye-color mutants are autosomal recessive?

Check all that apply.

Part C

Predict  phenotype ratios of cross .

Part D

Predict  phenotype ratios of cross .

Part E

Predict  phenotype ratios of cross .

Part F

Predict  phenotype ratios of cross .
