Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
You have two mutant strains of fruit flies, each showing a different eye color. Design a complementation test to determine if both mutations are in the same gene.
💡 Hint: Consider what color the result should show.
Analyze a genetic map with two genes, A and B, showing recombination frequencies of 10% and 50%. What can you conclude about their physical locations?
💡 Hint: Think about how frequency reflects proximity on the chromosome.
