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?
