Part B: Perform a reciprocal cross to analyse sex-linked traits

1. A reciprocal cross is a wild type male x mutant female followed by a mutant male x wild

type female (obviously, you study the same trait here). Choose an allele found on the sex

chromosome (See chromosome map on page 2, the X chromosome is labelled I-X).

2. Determine how the offspring differ depending on which parent had the mutant phenotype.

Be prepared to explain why this happens in your final lab report. You only need to look at the

F1generation here.

3. Test the hypothesized ratios by using a Chi-Square analysis
