Question
In Drosophila, a female with three recessive traits, miniature wings,
(m), ebony body (e) and rough eyes (r) were crossed with true-
breeding wild-type males. In the F₁, all offspring had wild-type
phenotypes. F, offspring were testcrossed
to miniature, ebony, rough individuals and 1000 offspring were
counted, shown in the table below.
