In fruit flies, red eyes (pr+_)are dominant to purple eyes (prpr)and normal wings (vg+_)are dominant to vestigial wings (vgvg). The genes are located on the same chromosome. A purebreeding red-eyed fly with vestigial wings was crossed with a pure-breeding purple-eyed fly with normal wings. All of the F1 progeny had a WT phenotype. Which of the following represents the arrangement of alleles on the F1's chromosome?
