You have isolated three different Drosophila recessive mutants
(1, 2, and 3) that disrupt the formation of R7 photoreceptor cells
during eye formation. To ask in which cell is the gene product
required, mosaic analysis were performed for all three mutations
and the results are shown below. For each mutation, the open cells
represent homozygous mutant cells, whereas the filled cells
represent the wild type cells. Based on these please answer the
following questions
