9. In man, brown eyes (B) are dominant over blue eyes (b) and normal skin pigmentation (N) is dominant over albinism (n). A brown eyed, albino man whose mother had blue eyes and normal skin pigmentation and whose father was albino marries a blue eyed, normally pigmented woman whose father had brown eyes and was albino. (a) What is the woman's genotype? (b) What proportion of the couple's offspring would be expected to have brown eyes and normal skin pigmentation? (c) What proportion of the couple's offspring would be expected to have genotype Bbnn? (d) If the man were to marry a woman with the same genotype as his present father-in-law, what proportion of the offspring would be expected to have blue eyes and be albino? (e) If the woman were to marry a man with the same genotype as her present mother-in-law, what proportion of the offspring would be expected to be of genotype bbNN?
