What type of crosses were carried out by Morgan on Drosophila?

What type of crosses were carried out by Morgan on Drosophila? Correct Answer Dihybrid

Morgan was trying to observe the phenomenon reported by Mendel. Hence, he did dihybrid crosses on Drosophila. These dihybrid crosses allowed him to understand the process of meiosis. He also identified the phenomenon of linkage. This was used later by his student to create the first genetic map.
