Q.In a multiple allele system exhibiting a dominance hierarchy (e.g., $w^+ > w^{co} > w^a > w$ ), a cross between a heterozygote ( $w^+ w^a$ ) and a homozygous recessive ( $w w$ ) will produce:

All offspring with the

w^+

phenotype

1:1

ratio of

w^+

phenotype and

w^a

phenotype

1:1

ratio of

w^{co}

phenotype and

w

phenotype

All offspring with the

w

phenotype

The correct solution involves applying the fundamental concept to derive the final value step by step...
