The offspring will produce only gametes that have genes for curly wings

The statement that correctly describes the F1 generation of a straight winged parent is crossed with a curly winged parent and if both parents are true breeding is:

The offspring will have one allele for straight wings and one allele for curly wings

Using the Punnet square, there will be a 100% chance that all offspring will have a phenotype of straight winged and a genotype containing an allele for straight winged and for curly winged.
