1. A woman is colorblind. Construct a Punnett square and using versions of the letter “C” determine if she marries a man with normal vision: What are the chances her sons will be colorblind? What are the chances her daughters will be colorblind? What are the chances of having a carrier daughter? 2. Both the husband and wife have normal vision. Their son is colorblind. What can you conclude about the father’s genotype? What about the mother’s genotype? Father: Mother: 3. If a young girl has fragile X syndrome, a recessive trait (f), what is her genotype?
