Assume that blood type is inherited as A and B dominant over O, but A and B are codominant over each other. Genotypes (IA IA) and (IA i) are then phenotypically type A, genotypes (IB IB) and (IB i) are type B, genotype (IA IB) is type AB, and genotype (i i) is type O blood. A man with blood type IA IA marries a woman with type AB blood. What are the genotypic and phenotypic ratios of the children?

As it turned out, one of the tallest Potsdam Guards had an unquenchable attraction to short women. During his tenure as guard, he had numerous clandestine affairs. In each case, children resulted. Subsequently, some of the childrenwho had no way of knowing that they were relatedmarried and had children of their own. Assume that two pairs of genes determine height. The genotype of the 7-foot-tall Potsdam Guard was A9A9B9B9, and the genotype of all of his 5-foot clandestine lovers was AABB. An A9 or B9 allele in the offspring each adds 6 inches to the base height of 5 feet conferred by the AABB genotype. a. What were the genotypes and phenotypes of all the F1 children? b. Diagram the cross between the F1 offspring, and give all possible genotypes and phenotypes of the F2 progeny

Frank and Susan both have freckles but they're firstborn son Lawrence does not demonstrate the characteristics. What are the most likely genotype of Frank Susan and Lawrence?
a. The pedigree follows the inheritance of a relatively common trait. Is the trait most likely autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, X-linked dominant, or X-linked recessive? Explain your reasoning. b. If the couple marked with a “*” had another child, what is the probability that it would be an affected daughter? (Note: this is a compound outcome.)
Write the genotype for each person based on : -Homozygous for B allele -Heterozygous for A allele -Type O -Type A and had a type O parent -Type AB -Blood that can be donated to anybody -Can only received blood from a type O donor 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.
