Red-green color blindness is inherited through an X-linked, recessive allele (b). Two parents, Fred and Ginger, have normal vision. They have two daughters, Takiyah and Kelly, who also have normal vision, and a color-blind son, David. 3. Daughter Kelly has a color-blind son, Kevin. Daughter Takiyah has five sons, all with normal vision. What are the genotypes of all the individuals? Show all your work! Fred Ginger David Takiyah Kelly. Kevin Takiyah's five sons If Kelly marries a man with normal vision, what is the probability that she'll have a color-blind son? a color-blind daughter?

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?
Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal disease that mainly affects the white population, and 1 in 20 whites are heterozygotes. Genetic testing can diagnose heterozygotes. Should a genetic screening program for cystic fibrosis be instituted? Should the federal government fund it? Should the program be voluntary or mandatory, and why?
A young couple went to see a genetic counselor because each had a sibling with cystic fibrosis. (Cysticfibrosis is a recessive disease, and neither member ofthe couple nor any of their four parents is affected.)a. What is the probability that the female of thiscouple is a carrier?b. What are the chances that their child will havecystic fibrosis?c. What is the probability that their child will be acarrier of the cystic fibrosis disease allele?
Color-blindness (c) is a sex-linked recessive trait, while normal color vision (C) is dominant: If two normal-visioned parents have a color-blind son, what are the parent's genotypes? ~What are the chances that their children will be color-blind?
Albinism is a recessive disorder where there is a lack of melanin. Andrea and her husband Claude both have normal skin pigmentation. Andrea’s mother has the albino phenotype, but her father and her brother do not (normal pigmentation). Claude’s parents are both normal, but he has a sister who has the condition (is albino). Answer the following questions If Andrea and Claude are carriers for the albino allele, what is the probability that they have an albino child? If Andrea and Claude have a second child, what is the probability this child be normal (non-albino)? NOTE: Draw a punnet square or show your work.
Above is a pedigree for colorblindness. Based on the pedigree, is the disease dominant or recessive and is it sex-linked or autosomal? Why? Furthermore, what is the probability that 18 on this chart is affected but the condition, and what is the probability that 18 is a carrier? Why? Are the probability of being a carrier and an affected individual different? Why
In humans, the genes for colorblindness and hemophilia are both located on the X chromosome with no corresponding gene in the Y. These are both recessive alleles. If a man and a woman, both with normal vision, marry and have a colorblind son, draw the Punnet square that illustrates this. If the man dies and the woman remarries a colorblind man, draw a Punnet Square showing the type of children that could be expected from the second marriage. How many/what percentages of each could be expected.
A young couple went to see a genetic counselor because each had a sibling with cystic fibrosis. (Cystic fibrosis is a recessive disease, and neither member of the couple nor any of their four parents is affected.) What is the probability that the female of this couple is a carrier? What are the chances that their child will have cystic fibrosis? 3. What is the probability that their child will be a carrier of the cystic fibrosis disease allele?
In human beings, the gene for red‑green colorblindness (r) is sex‑linked and recessive to its allele for normal vision (R), while the gene for freckles (F) is autosomal and dominant over its allele for nonfreckled (f). A nonfreckled, normal‑visioned woman whose father was freckled and colorblind, marries a freckled, colorblind man whose mother was nonfreckled. What is the genotype of the woman's father? What is the probability that the couple's first child will be a non-freckled, normal visioned girl? What is the probability that the first two children born to the couple will be freckled and colorblind girls?
Wavy hair is intermediate to straight and curly hair. Similarly, medium-sized nose may be inherited if one parent has a large nose and the other parent has a small nose. Wendel has wavy hair, large nose, and type A blood. His father is type O. What is the complete genotype of Wendel? Krisha has straight hair, medium-sized nose, and type AB blood. 2. What is the complete genotype of Krisha? Assuming that Krisha and Wendel would marry, what is the probability that they will have a: 3. Son with the same traits as Wendel? 4. Daughter with the same traits as Krisha? 5. Child with curly hair, small nose, and type O blood?
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
A man who is a dwarf due to achondroplasia and has normal vision marries a color-blind woman of normal height. The man's father was 6 feet tall, and both the woman's parents were of average height. Achondroplasia is autosomal dominant, and red-green color blindness is X-linked recessive. What are the possible genotypes and phenotypes of their children? What are the ratios for each?
