Consider a couple: a woman who is homozygous for a recessive mutation that causes X-linked colorblindness, and a man with full color vision (he does not carry a copy of the mutation). a) What is the probability that a son of this couple will be colorblind? b) What is the probability that a daughter of the couple will be colorblind?
Could a woman with the X-linked color-blind trait have a son without colorblindness? Use a Punnett square to explain your answer.
I will be adding two questions here because I asked two of the same questions twice by accident earlier. A man and a woman do not have hemophilioa, but the womans father did. (Hemophilia is X-linked recessive). a) What is the probability that they will have a child with hemophilia? b) Is it possible for any of their daughters to be affected? Explain. A cross between a horse homozygous for red hair and a horse homozygous for white hair results in offspring with the coat colour called roan. When you look at the fur of the roan offspring you see both red and white hairs. What type of inheritance best explains this? a) blending inheritance b)codominance c)incomplete codominance d)multiple alleles
Like cats, ogres have X-linked fur colors. They can have either an X that is blue or an X that is green. If a Green male ogre and a Green/Blue spotted female ogre have children. Use XG for green and XB for blue. What percent of FEMALE offspring will have green fur? ____50%_____ (use table below) Blue and green fur? ________50%_______________ What percent of MALE offspring will have green fur? Tell me how you determined this. Related: Explain why (under normal circumstances) female ogres can be Green, Blue, or Green and Blue checkered/spotted whereas male ogres can only be solid Green or solid Blue. You find a rare 1/3000 chance of a male ogre that is green and blue checkered. Give one scenario that might explain this male.
Duchenne muscular dystrophy is sex linked and usually affects only males. Victims of the disease become progressively weaker, starting early in life.a. What is the probability that a woman whose brother has Duchenne’s disease will have an affected child?b. If your mother’s brother (your uncle) had Duchenne’s disease, what is the probability that you have received the allele?c. If your father’s brother had the disease, what is the probability that you have received the allele?
a. Determine if the pedigree below can be for a trait that is X-linked traits. Write the genotype of each individual next to the symbol. b. Is it possible that this pedigree is for an X-linked recessive trait? c. What can you conclude about the children if both parents are affected with an X-linked recessive trait?
Duchenne muscular dystrophy is an X-linked, recessive disorder in which muscles waste away early in life, resulting in death in the teens or twenties. A man and woman in their late thirties have five children—three boys (ages 1, 3, and 10 years) and two girls (ages 5 and 7 years). The oldest, boy shows symptoms of the disease. What are the probabilities that their other children will develop the disease? Give only typing answer with explanation and conclusion
A man who has color blindness and type O blood has children with a woman who has normal color vision and type AB blood. The woman’s father had color blindness. Color blindness is determined by an X-linked gene, and blood type is determined by an autosomal gene. a. What are the genotypes of the man and the woman? b. What proportion of their children will have color blindness and type B blood? c. What proportion of their children will have color blindness and type A blood? d. What proportion of their children will be color blind and have type AB blood?
QUANTITATIVE Recall that hemophilia is an X-linked recessive disease. If a woman with hemophilia had children with a man without hemophilia, what is the chance that their first child will have the disease? What is the chance that their first child will be a carrier?
Give typing answer with explanation and conclusion Suppose a woman who is homozygous for Huntington's disease has 12 children? We would expect __________ of them to have the disease. A mother who is heterozygous for the Huntington's disease gene wants to have a baby with a man who is also heterozygous for the gene. What is the likelihood their baby will not have Huntington's disease?
Because red-green colour-blindness is an X-linked recessive condition, which of the following situations is not possible? a) a colourblind father passes the condition to this daughter b) a colourblind father passes the condition to his son c) a heterozygous mother passes the condition to her daughter d) a heterozygous mother passes the condition to her son Red-green colour blindness is a deficiency of colour vision so that a person affected by it cannot tell the difference between red and green. This is an X-linked recessive condition. Which statement is correct? a) The allele is written as X^r, and an affected female is heterozygous. b) The allele is written as X^r; an affected male is X^rY and a heterozygous female is X^RX^r c)The allele is written as X^r and a male with genotype X^RY is affected d) The allele is written as X^R; a normal male is X^RY and a homozygous recessive female is X^rX^r.
Note: Don't copy from internet, Also answer correctly in terms of diploid, hemizygous, and carrier!! Thanks Explain why genetic disorders caused by recessive alleles of X-linked genes appear more frequently in males than in females? In your explanation, please include explanations of the following terms: diploid, hemizygous, carrier.
