Classical hemophilia is a sex-linked disease caused by a recessive gene on the X chromosome. (Hemophilia refers to diseases that cause delays in blood clotting.) If a woman who is acarrierof classical hemophilia has children with a normal male, give the ratios of the possible offspring with respect to classical hemophilia. Be sure to state both the genotypes and the phenotypes of each offspring. For genotypes, use X for a normal X chromosome, Xh for an X chromosome with the hemophilia gene, and Y for a normal Y chromosome. For phenotypes, if the offspring is female, be sure to state if homozygous normal, a carrier, or has the disease. If the offspring is a male, be sure to state if normal or has the disease.

Given the karyotype shown at right, is this a male or a female? Normal or abnormal? What would the phenotype of this individual be?
Porphyria is a genetic disorder caused by the inability to properly metabolize a component of hemoglobin. King George III is suspected to have been afflicted with this disorder. Assume that both George and his Queen suffered from this disorder and they had one afflicted child and one normal child. Is porphyria inherited in a dominant or recessive fashion? What must be the genotype of both George and his Queen? Using punnett square, show ALL work used to achieve your answer.
Which blood type phenotypes (A, B, AB, and/or O) provide anunambiguous genotype? Is it possible for a couple to produce afamily of children in which all four blood types are represented? Ifso, what would the genotypes of the parents have to be?
In a paternity suit, a woman with type O blood claims that a man with type AB blood is the father of her type O baby. List the genetypes of the mom, man, and baby. Can the woman prove he is the father or can he is not? Why or why not? If the accused man was type A insyead of type AB, what would be his possible genotypes? Could the woman prove he is the father? Can the man prove he is not the father? Why or why not?
Hemophilia is an X-linked disorder that affects the body’s ability to create blood clots. The allele for normal blood clotting, XH, is dominant over the allele for hemophilia, Xh. An unaffected female that is not a carrier mated with an affected male. Which of the following rows identifies the possible genotypes of the offspring? Select one: a. Female Male XHXH and XHXh XHY and XhY b. Female Male XHXh XHY c. Female Male XHXh XHY and XhY d. Female Male XHXH and XHXh XHY
Hemophilia is another example of a X-linked disease caused when a recessive allele (Xh) is expressed. If a normal male reproduces with a heterozygous normal female, what are the expected genotypes and phenotypes? Will any of their daughters develop hemophilia? As in the previous question, you must also give the gender of the child in your genotype and phenotype descriptions here.
A mother is heterozygous for the X-linked gene for colorblindness and also heterozygous for the autosomal inherited sickle cell anemia. She is married to a man who can see color normally and who is heterozygous for sickle cell trait. Using b (colorblind), B (normal color), S (normal hemoglobin), s (sickle cell), answer the following: a. What are the genotypes of the parents? b: What is the probability of having a child who is both color blind and has sickle cell anemia?
If an individual has the dominant phenotype for an x-linked trait, what is/are the possible genotype(s)? if an individual has the recessive phenotype for an x-linked trait, what what is/are the possible genotype(s)? Practice a Punnet square for each of the following autosomal combinations. Assume complete dominance. Determine the genotype and phenotype ratios of the offspring. Genotype ratio = _____GG : _____ Gg: ______gg. Phenotype ratio = _________dominant trait : __________recessive trait. parents with genotypes GG and Gg parents with genotypes Gg and Gg parents with genotypes GG and gg parents with genotypes Gg and gg Practice a Punnet square for each of the following x-linked combinations.

If a girl has blood type AB and her mother is also AB, what are the genotype(s) and corresponding phenotype(s) of any male who could not be the girl’s father?
The most common form of colorblindness is a recessive, sex-linked hereditary con dition caused by a defect on the X chromosome. Females are XX, while males are XY. Individuals inherit one chromosome from each parent, with equal probability; for example, an individual has a 50% chance of inheriting their father's X chromosome, and a 50% chance of inheriting their father's Y chromosome. If a male has an X chromosome with the defect, he is colorblind. However, a female with only one defective X chromo some will not be colorblind. Thus, colorblindness is more common in males than females; 7% of males are colorblind but only 0.5% of females are colorblind. (a) Assume that the X chromosome with the wild-type allele is X+ and the one with the disease allele is X. What is the expected frequency of each possible female genotype: X+X+, X+X¯, and X-X-? What is the expected frequency of each possible male genotype: X+ Y and X-Y? (b) Suppose that two parents are not colorblind. What is the…
In humans, the allele for normal blood clotting (H) is dominant to the allele for hemophilia. This is a sex-linked trait found on the X chromosome. A woman with normal blood clotting has four children: a normal son, a hemophiliac son, and two normal daughters. The father has normal blood clotting. What is the probable genotype for each member of the family?
