The following pedigree shows the pattern of inheritance of red-green color blindness in a family. Females are shown as circles and males as squares; the squares or circles of individuals affected by the trait are filled in black. What is the chance that a son of the third-generation female indicated by the arrow will be color blind if the father is not color blind? If he is color blind?
A pedigree analysis was performed on the family of a man with schizophrenia. Based on the known concordance statistics, would his MZ twin be at high risk for the disease? Would the twins risk decrease if he were raised in an environment different from that of his schizophrenic brother?
Mendel performs a cross using a true-breeding pea plant with round, yellow seeds and a true- breeding pea plant with green, wrinkled seeds. What is the probability that offspring will have green, round seeds? Calculate the probability for the F1 and F2 generations.
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
In dogs, wire-haired (H) is dominant to smooth-haired (h). In a cross of a homozygous wire-haired with a smooth-haired dog, what will be the phenotype of the F1 generation? What would be the genotype? What would be the ratio the wire-haired dogs in the F1 generation? What are the phenotypic and genotypic ratio?
In guinea pigs, the gene for black coat color is dominant to the gene for white coat color. What will be the genotypic ratio for the cross between two heterozygous parents?
Below is a pedigree of a family with colorblindness. II-1 has a father who is colorblind, and II-1 and II-2 have another child, what is the chance that this child will be colorblind? 0 1/2 1/4 1/8
Among dogs, short hair is dominant to long hair and dark coat color is dominant to white (albino) coat color. Assume that these two coat traits are caused by independently segregating gene pairs. For each of the crosses given below, write the most probable genotype (or genotypes if more than one answer is possible) for the parents. It is important that you select a realistic symbol set and define each symbol below. Assume that for cross (d), you were interested in determining whether fur color follows a 3:1 ratio. Set up (but do not complete the calculations) a Chi-square test for these data [fur color in cross (d)].
In cattle, coat color is inherited in a co-dominant fashion. Homozygous C R C R produces red coat,homozygous C W C W produces white coat, and the heterozygous C R C W produces roan-colored coat.What is the probability of having a roan-coated offspring in a cross between a white-coated cattle anda roan-coated cattle?
In earlobes, free (F) earlobe is dominant while attached (f) earlobe is recessive. What proportion of the offspirng would we expect to have attached earlobes in the following crosses: 1. Heterozygous dominant for ree earlobes with homozygous dominant for free earlobes. ______ 2. Homozygous dominant for free earlobes with attached earlobes. ______ 3. Attached earlobes with attached earlobes. (Answer in percent) ______
Polydactylism (extra digits) is due to a dominant autosomal allele, what is the likelihood that a couple with the normal number of digits have a son with polydactylism? Flower color in snapdragons is due to a gene with incomplete dominance: CRCR plants have red flowers, CRCW have pink flowers, and CWCW plants have white flowers. Which cross is expected to yield progeny that all have pink flowers? A couple is expressing a child, the man has hemophilia (a sex-linked blood disorder due to a recessive allele) and the woman is a carrier for this disorder. If they have a daughter, what is the likelihood that she will inherit hemophilia?
If body-color B is dominant to green body color b what would the genotype be for a heterozygous individual be? Using the blue B and a green b body color from above create a Punit square that represents the offspring of two heterozygous parents? what is the probability that they will have a child with a green body-color If the child is green what is its genotype? Cross a green parent with a homozygous blue parent. What color will their kids be?
