Virtual Fly Lab
Name __________________________________ Period ___________ AP Biology Lab 7: Genetics of Drosophila (virtual version) Overview In this lab you will be doing virtual genetic crosses of fruit flies (Drosophila melanogaster). You will learn how to collect data from F1 and F2 generations and analyze the results from a monohybrid, dihybrid, or sex-linked cross. Objectives Use chi-square to analyze data Understand the life cycle of fruit flies Investigate the independent assortment of two genes and determine whether the two genes are autosomal or sex-linked using a multi-generation experiment Introduction
