11. What evidence do you see in the pedigree illustrated if any, allowing the mode of inheritance for this trait to be deduced as completely vs. incompletely dominant? Do not consider any other information beyond what is shown in the pedigree. Answer in one complete sentence, referring to any individuals in the pedigree who may be informative using generation and individual numbers.
1. Construct pedigree charts using the inheritance of hemophilia in figure 92. This is X-linked inheritance so you are required to label XX for females and XY for males. The gene responsible for the trait is represented by the superscript which should be specified in the legend.
2a) Identify the pattern of Mendelian inheritance represented in the pedigree above. 2b) Explain how you made this determination.
1. Hair or fur length in cats is controlled by a single, autosomal gene; the short hair-allele is dominant to the allele for long hair. Hair color is produced by a different gene which is located on the X chromosome. One allele for this sex-linked gene produces yellow, while an alternate allele produces black fur color; individualswhich are heterozygous for these alleles are calico or tortiseshell in color.If a long-haired, black male is mated with a calico female homozygous for short hair what kind of kittens will be produced in the Ej generation? Give both genotypes and phenotypes; express the genotypes bothsymbolically and in words. Label answers clearly!!

10 cM separates two hypothetical autosomal human genes. The dominant alleles are have complete penetrance and will result to Crossed eyes (e+) and short thumbs (th+). Four children are born to a normal guy and cross-eyed, small-thumbed woman. Two of the children have short thumbs and the other two have crossed eyes. She is carrying her fifth child. What is the probability that this fifth child will be cross-eyed and have short thumbs?
