Suppose that for three generations, the clawed wing trait has only shown up in males. In the fourth generation, a mating between a clawed wing male and a normal wing female produces a clawed wing female. Does this necessarily mean that the trait is not sex-linked? Why or why not? (Sketching out a quick pedigree may help you answer)
Based on your understanding of sex - linked recessive traits, would it be possible for the phenotype to skip one or more generations before reappearing? Explain your answer.

Using crosses, how can you determine whether this guinea pig with pointy ears is homozygous or heterozygous for the dominant trait? Explain the cross you would make and what it would tell you.

IN TRANSYLVANIA, SOME PEOPLE EXHIBIT TWO UNUSUAL TRAITS IN WHICH THEY HAVE VERY LONG FRONT TEETH AND THE INABILITY TO BE AWAKE WHEN THE SUN IS UP. BOTH OF THESE TRAITS APPEAR TO BE RECESSIVE. IF A WOMAN WHO IS HETEROZYGOUS FOR TEETH AND HOMOZYGOUS NORMAL FOR BEING IN THE SUN MARRIES A MAN WHO HAS BOTH THESE TRAITS, WHAT COULD BE THE PHENOTYPES AND GENOTYPES OF THEIR CHILDREN? USE A PUNNET SQUARE AND SHOW ALL WORK. LIST THE RATIOS FOR THE GENOTYPES AND PHENOTYPES.
