Genetics CrossesThis is a question from a practice exam for our exam tomorrow morning. Please help I have been staring at this for an hour and cant figure it out.
You have two strains of Chlamydomonas. One is mt+ mating type, is sensitive to Drug A and resistant to Drugs B and C. The other is mt- mating type, resistant to Drug A, and sensitive to Drugs B and C. You crossed the two strains and analyzed 100 progeny. Predict the results of the cross assuming that sensitivity/resistance to Drug B is due to a nuclear gene 10 map units away from the mating type gene (mt), sensitivity/resistance to Drug A is due to a chloroplast gene, and sensitivity/resistance to Drug C is due to a mitochondrial gene. Note that Chlamydomonas mitochondria and chloroplasts are inherited from parents of opposite mating types.
