Solution-Calculate map distance between blue eye and any | Homework Help

Drosophila has four pairs of chromosomes: the sex chromosomes (XX in the females; XY in the males) and three pairs of autosomes. You are studying a new mutant strain with blue eyes. You wish to know if blue eye colour is a dominant mutation and on which chromosome the blue eye locus can be found. When you cross a pure-breeding female blue-eyed fly with vestigial wings and spineless bristles to a male fly with wild type eye colour, wings, and bristles, all of the F1 progeny are completely wild type. An F1 male is backcrossed to a triple mutant female, producing the following progeny (remember that there is no crossing over in Drosophila males):

When an F1 female is backcrossed to a triple mutant male, the following 12,000 progeny are produced:
