In examining a large sample pf yeast colonies on a petri dish, ageneticist finds an abnormal-looking colony that is very small.This small colony was crossed with wild type, and products ofmeiosis were spread on a plate to produce colonies. In total, therewere 188 wild type (normal size) colonies and 180 small ones.

a. What can be deduce from these results regarding the inheritanceof the small-colony phenotype?

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