Red-green colorblindness is a X-linked recessive disorder. Jill has normal vision but her dad was color blind. Tom has normal color vision. Jill and Tom have a daughter with Turner syndrome (XO) and she is color blind? Write out the genotype of the daughter. How did the daughter inherit her color blindness? Which parent did she inherit her single X chromosome from? Which parent had a non-disjunction event during gametogenesis? How do you know?

Redgreen color blindness is an X-linked recessive disorder in humans. Your friend is the daughter of a color-blind father. Her mother had normal color vision, but her maternal grandfather was color-blind. What is the probability that your friend is color-blind? (a) 1 (b) (c) (d) (e) 0
Analysis of X-Linked Dominant and Recessive Traits A young boy is color-blind. His one brother and five sisters are not. The boy has three maternal uncles and four maternal aunts. None of his uncles children or grandchildren is color-blind. One of the maternal aunts married a color-blind man, and half of her children, both male and female, are color-blind. The other aunts married men who have normal color vision. All their daughters have normal vision, but half of their sons are color-blind. a. Which of the boys four grandparents transmitted the gene for color blindness? b. Are any of the boys aunts or uncles color-blind? c. Is either of the boys parents color-blind?
Colorblindness is an X-linked recessive trait. If a color blind woman is married to a man with normal vision, what are the chances that the biological daughters from this marriage will be colorblind?
In humans, blue eyes are inherited as a recessive autosomal trait and color blindness is an X-linked recessive trait. A woman with blue eyes and normal color vision (her father was colorblind) marries a man who has normal color vision. The man has brown eyes, but his mother had blue eyes. What is the probability that this couple will have a son with brown eyes? What is the probability that this couple will have a color blind son with blue eyes?
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? For full credit, you must show all work.
Red-green color blindness is an X-linked recessive disorder. If Allison is heterozygous (a carrier), and her husband, Michael, is NOT colorblind. What is the chance that their male children will be colorblind? (Note: you are calculating the probability for their MALE children only, in other words if they have 1 male child, what is the probability that he will be born with the disease?) 0% 25% or 1/4 50% or 2/4 75% or 4/4 100% or 4/4
Earl has a normal color vision, while his wife alma is color blind. Color blindness is an X-linked trait and the normal allele is dominant to the color blindness allele. If they have a large family, and what we should the color blindness trait affect their children?
A man with X-linked color blindness marries a woman with no history of color blindness in her family. The daughter of this couple marries a normal man, and their daughter also marries a normal man. What is the chance that this last couple will have a child with color blindness? If this couple has already had a child with color blindness, what is the chance that their next child will be color blind?
Red–green color blindness is a human X-linked recessive disorder. Jill has normal color vision, but her father is color blind. Jill marries Tom, who also has normal color vision. Jill and Tom have a daughter who has Turner syndrome and is color blind. a. How did the daughter inherit color blindness? b. Did the daughter inherit her X chromosome from Jill or from Tom?
Red–green color blindness is an X-linked recessive trait. Susan has normal color vision, but her father is color blind. Susan marries Bob, who has normal color vision. Q. Susan and Bob have a daughter named Betty, who has normal color vision. If Betty marries a man with normal color vision, and they have a son, what is the probability that the son will be color blind?
Hemophilia is an X-linked recessive disorder and blood type is autosomal. If two healthy parents, one of which is blood type A and the other blood type B, produce a son who has hemophilia and is type O, what is the probability that their next child will be a son with hemophilia and blood type B? 1/2 3/16 1/4 1/8 1/16
Male-pattern baldness is an X-linked recessive trait (Xb). A father with a genotype XBY and a mother with a genotype XBXb has a son. What is the percent chance that the son will inherit male-pattern baldness?
