In examining a large sample of yeast colonies on a petri dish, a geneticist finds an abnormal-looking colony that is very small. This small colony was crossed with wild type, and products of meiosis (ascospores) were spread on a plate to produce colonies. In total, there were 188 wild-type (normal Size) colonies and 180 small ones.

a.What can be deduced from these results regarding the inheritance of the small-colony phenotyp? (invent genetics symbols)

b. What would an ascus from this cross look like?
