A scientist named Thomas Hunt Morgan studied genetics in fruit flies. Specifically he looked at wild type (normal) wings versus vestigial (shortened) wings. When he crossed a wild type female with a vestigial male he expected to see 50% parental phenotypes and 50% recombinant phenotypes in the offspring. However, what he actually found was 83% parental phenotypes and 17% recombinant phenotypes. What does this suggest about the genes he was studying? How do the percentages help us determine this?

More offspring resembles to parents.

Explanation:

The percentages help us to determine that the parental genes are dominant in the offspring and more percentage of offspring resembles to the parents whereas low percentage of offspring are hybrid in nature. Hybrid means the offspring which are different from their parents or having new characteristics. So the results shows that 83% offspring resembles to their parents whereas 17% offspring are totally different from the parents.

the circled areas are referred to   as sunspots.   the sunspots are cooler than the   surrounding area.

sunspots are temporary phenomena on the photosphere of the sun that appear visibly as dark spots compared to surrounding regions. they correspond to concentrations of magnetic field flux that inhibit convection and result in reduced surface temperature compared to the surrounding photosphere.
