In human beings, the gene for red‑green colorblindness (r) is sex‑linked and recessive to its allele for normal vision (R), while the gene for freckles (F) is autosomal and dominant over its allele for nonfreckled (f). A nonfreckled, normal‑visioned woman whose father was freckled and colorblind, marries a freckled, colorblind man whose mother was nonfreckled. What is the genotype of the woman's father? What is the probability that the couple's first child will be a non-freckled, normal visioned girl? What is the probability that the first two children born to the couple will be freckled and colorblind girls?

1. Construct a pedigree chart of the trait traced in the situation below.2. The pedigree chart must be constructed with the names and genotypes at the bottom of every individual in the chart.If it is autosomal: Always use the first letter of the dominant trait to represent the dominant allele. For example, if the dominant trait is red, so the allele R-red, while r-yellow. For example, if the person is homozygous dominant for curly hair, we write CC as his genotype. If sex-linked, do not forget to write the parents’ chromosomes (XX-female, XY-male), with their corresponding superscripts (dominant or recessive). The superscript must be based on the first letter of the disorder. For example, the mother is a carrier of hemophilia (which is x-linked recessive), so we write XHXh. If the father has hemophilia, we write XhY. Put the pedigree chart using code properly. The situation is given below: Trait: NeurofibromatosisThe dominant form is neurofibromatosis, caused by the production of…
