In a population of fruit flies, the R allele confers regular red eye colour while the r allele produces white eye colours. The R gene produces a red pigment, the recessive allele of this gene (r) is nonfunctional. Individuals that are heterozygous have pink eyes.

Imagine a set of genes that code for climbing speed of a sloth where there are slow, medium and fast climbers. The slow gene (S) and the fat (F) genes are the two loci that control climbing speed. If you produce a dihybrid cross of sloths from these two genes you get 9 slow, 3 medium and 4 fast.
What genotype would produce a sloth that climbs at medium speed?
