Multiple Choice

In Drosophila,the allele red eyes (bw+) is dominant to the allele for brown eyes (bw) .At another gene locus on the same chromosome,the allele for thin wing veins (hv+) is dominant to the allele for heavy wing veins (hv) .Flies homozygous for bw and hv+ are crossed to flies homozygous for bw+ and hv to obtain doubly heterozygous F1 progeny.
-Given that these two gene loci are very closely linked,the genotypic ratio in the F2 generation should be closest to


A) 1:2:1
