melanogaster: Monohybrid Cross & Sex-Linked Inheritance October 6‚ 2012 Abstract This lab involved a monohybrid reciprocal cross and a sex-linked cross utilizing Drosophila melanogaster fruit flies. After sexing the flies‚ placing them in media‚ and letting them cross breed‚ we analyzed and recorded the phenotypes that were observed. The P1 flies were anesthetized then sexed by observing their phenotypes and equally distributed into the media we made for their copulation

research is using this information to reduce the amount of anoxia related stress humans with pulmonary diseases experience. Methods Each condition was tested with a separate single group of D. melanogaster (cold bath - 8 flies and warm bath – 11 flies)‚ and all of the flies used were approximately 1-9 day old males. Each group of D. melanogaster was held in a container that provided adequate nutrients prior to the experiment‚ and then transferred to a drowning container that held no nutrients.

Ivan Chavez B1 Invasive Species: The Mexican Fruit fly An invasive species is a species that does not naturally take place in a particular area and with its arrival brings economic‚ environmental or human harm (1). Recently there has been a bigger emphasis on invasive species (1). They are threatening our agriculture and forests and causing major impacts to our cities (1). The characteristics that make the species thrive in their environment vary with each. Their characteristics

using the fruit fly‚ Drosophila Melanogaster. A Cinnabar Brown female was crossed with Wild Type male. The flies were mated in a jar containing a nutrient medium and then placed in an incubator. The experiment was conducted over a period of 5 weeks. Cinnabar (cn) and brown (bw) are two loci in Drosophila with recessive eye colour mutations. Mutations in cn cause a bright red eye and mutations in bw cause a brown eye. Double mutants have white eyes. As predicted‚ all the F1 generation of flies were wild

pouring from everybody gnats tend to swarm up around most of the people out on the field. Gnats and fruit flies are very similar. The only difference between the two‚ is that gnats form big groups outdoors‚ while fruit flies are mostly found indoors. Either way they’re living‚ they’re both extremely annoying. There are many different types of gnats‚ which are Fungus Gnats‚ Drain Flies‚ Midges‚ Sand Flies‚ and Black

Problem Set – Monohybrid and Dihybrid Cross 1. Classical albinism results from a recessive allele. What is the expected offspring from a normally pigmented male with an albino father and an albino wife? 2. A pea plant with red flowers is test crossed and one half of the resulting progeny have red flowers‚ while the other half has white flowers. What is the genotype of the test crossed parent? 3. If we cross two pea plants each heterozygous for yellow seed color genes‚ what would be the

begin the lab‚ he/she must make a prediction about what gene the trait one are analyzing is on. The trait can either be sex-linked‚ or autosomal. To begin the lab‚ one must acquire a sample of flies to cross. These flies should be placed in a tube with an easily removable foam stopper. Use the flynap to knock out the fruit flies‚ and pour them out of the tube into a petri dish. Then place the petri dish on a stereomicroscope‚ and begin using a paintbrush to sort the flies by gender. Male flies have sex
