On average, what fraction of the genome in the pairs of humans would be exactly the same if no crossing over took place? For the purposes of this question only, ignore the special case of the X and Y sex chromosomes and assume that all genes are located on nonsex chromosomes. Also, assume that the uncle and niece are related by a sibling and not by marriage alone.

Red-green color blindness is inherited as an X-linked recessive (Xc). If a color-blind man marries a woman who is heterozygous for normal vision, what would be the expected phenotypes of their children with reference to this character? In your answer, specify in your phenotype descriptions the gender of the children. (For example, don’t just say 75% of the children would be colorblind – you would instead say 100 % of the daughters would be colorblind and 50% of the sons would be colorblind. Note that this is not a correct answer; it is just to give you an idea of how to explain the correct phenotypes of the cross.)___
Suppose gene B is X-linked and is embryonically lethal when homozygous or hemizygous recessive. A man marries a woman who is heterozygous for this gene. They want to have three kids – one girl and two boys. Using a Punnett square, answer the following: What is the probability that they will have a son that dies before birth? _______________________ What is the probability that they will have a daughter who has the same genotype as her mother? _________________ One of their daughters eventually has a child with a man. One of their sons dies before birth. What was the genotype of this daughter? _______________________________ please show me how to get the answer and explain how you got and use a punnet square
Assume for a moment that crossing-over did not occur. Would you agree that you received half of your chromosomes from each parent? Would you agree that you received one-quarter of your chromosomes from each grandparent? Would the answer to these questions change if you allowed for crossing-over to have occurred?
In the following pedigree of an X-linked recessive trait, what is the likelihood a child will be affected for the following matings? 1 x 2 [___] 13 x 14 [_____] 2 x 14 [_______] 4 x 12. [_______]
Assume that color blindness is a recessive character on the X chromosome. A man and woman with normal vision have the following offspring: a daughter with normal vision who has one color-blind son and one normal son; a daughter with normal vision who has six normal sons; and a color-blind son who has a daughter with normal vision. What are the probable genotypes of all individuals?
Imagine a cross between a man and a woman having the following genotypes: Genotype of the Husband Genotype of the Wife Aa bb Dd Gg Hh RR Tt X Aa Bb Dd gg Hh Rr Tt Assuming that the dominant allele in each gene pair exhibits complete dominance over the recessive allele, what is the probability that this couple would have a daughter who exhibits the recessive phenotype with respect to all seven of the gene pairs?
