A red-eyed male fruit fly is crossed with a heterozygous red-eyed female fruit fly. The expected results for the cross are shown in the table below.
The inheritance pattern is sex-linked, and the allele for red eye color is dominant.
The inheritance pattern is sex-linked, and the allele for red eye color is recessive.
The inheritance pattern is codominant, and the allele for red eye color masks the allele for white eye color.
The inheritance pattern is codominant, and the alleles for red eye color and white eye color are expressed equally.
Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) is a condition that causes the kidneys to produce many growths called cysts. The mode of inheritance for PKD is autosomal dominant. Suppose a man has heterozygous PKD, and a woman does not have PKD. Determine the woman's genotype.
