In fruit flies, gender is inherited in the same way as it is in humans. Eye color is a trait located on the X chromosome. There is no gene for eye color on the Y chromosome. The allele for red eye color (1) is dominant to the allele for white eye color (2).
Which of the diagrams represents a white eyed female?
A
B
C
D
E
