DROSOPHILA WILD TYPE AND DROSOPHILA SEPIA F1 AND F2 CROSSES BY ALI NANEZ, FORREST CLARK, LAUREN CUDDIHY

BACKGROUND INFORMATION • Drosophila Melanogaster • Africa to USA • Quick experiments, low cost, short life cycle • Gene arrangement contribute to biological functions • Mutation interaction • They use fundamental processes to which body structure forms

INTRODUCTION • Cross two different species of fruit flies • First cross: Drosophila Curly Plum and Apterous (died) • Second cross: Drosophila Wild Type and Sepia

• WT had autosomal dominant trait of red eyes • Sepia had autosomal recessive trait of brown/black eyes

F1 HYPOTHESIS • F1 Hypothesis: All of our off spring will have red eyes and carry the brown eye gene.

F2 HYPOTHESIS • F2 Hypothesis: 42 observed flies will result by having a ratio of red to black/brown eyes of 3:1.

METHODS/EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Fly Incubator



Two vials with food •

3 female Sepia, 3 WT male each vial



Obtained our F1 generation to crossed the offspring



Incubated the flies for new crosses



Obtained our F2 generation from F1 crosses



Counted and studied

RESULTS

• Since our sample value is was the same as the critical value, we decided that we failed

to reject our hypothesis. • Sample Value: 3.841 • Critical Values: 3.841
