Normal fruit flies have red eyes. Flies with mutations that block the function of the X-linked white gene have white eyes. The wild-type allele is completely dominant to mutant alleles. A white-eyed female fruit fly is mated to a red-eyed male. One of their hundreds of female progeny is white-eyed. This white-eyed daughter likely arose from nondisjunction of the sex chromosomes during ________ in the ________.
