The ABO blood system has been used to settle cases of disputed paternity. Suppose, as a geneticist, you must testify during a case in which the mother has type A blood, the child has type O blood, and the alleged father has type B blood. How would you respond to the following statements? a. Mans attorney: The mother has type A blood, so the childs type O blood must have come from the father. Because my client has type B blood, he could not be the father. b. Mothers attorney: Further tests prove this man is heterozygous, so he must be the father.
There is a couple, the blood type of a male is A+ and the female is o+. What are all the possible blood types of their children in the future? Illustrate the inheritance in a Punnett Square showing all the possible blood types from the offspring of the male and female.
In a disputed parentage case, the child is blood type O, while the mother is blood type A. What blood type would exclude a male from being the father? Would the other blood types prove that a particular male was the father?
Earl has a normal color vision, while his wife alma is color blind. Color blindness is an X-linked trait and the normal allele is dominant to the color blindness allele. If they have a large family, and what we should the color blindness trait affect their children?

A man with hemophilia (a recessive, sex-linkedcondition) has a daughter without the condition.She marries a man who does not have hemophilia.What is the probability that their daughter willhave hemophilia? Their son? If they have foursons, what is the probability that all will be affected?
A couple is going to have a baby. They are concerned about sickle cell anemia, which results from having the homozygous recessive combination of the sickle cell gene ("s"), which produces abnormal hemoglobin. Having at least one normal version of the gene ("S") results in normal hemoglobin. The woman is heterozygous, and so is the man. What alleles does mom have? What alleles does dad have?
Bryan has albinism, an autosomal recessive trait, which means he is homozygous recessive for albinism and his genotype is aa. Bryan's parents, Frank and Amy, do not have albinism however they must both be heterozygous. Bryan's sister, Allice, is a carrier for albinism. If Allice has offspring with Jim, who has no family history of albinism, what are the chances that their offspring are carriers for albinism? What are the chances that they children will get albinism? Use Punnett squares.
Karen and Steve each have a sibling with sickle-cell disease.Neither Karen nor Steve nor any of their parents have thedisease, and none of them have been tested to see if they carrythe sickle-cell allele. Based on this incomplete information,calculate the probability that if this couple has a child, thechild will have sickle-cell disease.
