In Drosophila melanogaster, vestigial wings are caused by a recessive allele of a gene that is linked to a gene with a recessive allele that causes black body color. Morgan crossed black-bodied normal-winged females and gray-bodied vestigial-winged males. The F1 were all gray bodied, normal winged. The F1 females were mated to black bodied, vestigial winged males. After examining the F2 progeny, Morgan calculated the map distance to be 17 map units. Which of the following is correct about the F2 progeny?

i. black-bodied, vestigial-winged flies = 17%

ii. black-bodied, normal-winged flies = 17%

iii. gray-bodied, normal-winged flies PLUS black-bodied, vestigial-winged flies = 17%

iv. black-bodied, normal-winged flies PLUS gray-bodied, vestigial-winged flies = 17%
