Imagine Drosophila genes C, D, and E are autosomal genes located close to each other on the same chromosome (same assumptions as the first problem).  You cross a C D E homozygote with a c d e homozygote, then cross the F1 females with a c d e homozygous male.  Of 400 progeny, you observe the following phenotypes: 135 CDE 139 cde 22 cDE 18 Cde 42 CdE 38 cDe 3 cdE 3 CDe a.  What is the order of the genes? Calculate the distance between genes and draw a map to get the final answer.  Question 2 options:   1.CED   2. DEC   3. ECD   4. DCE
