Suppose that allele D produces tiny ears and allele d produces normal ears. A heterozygous male with the Dd genotype mates with a homozygous female with the dd genotype. Tiny ears is an autosomal dominant trait expressed with 50%50% penetrance. Determine the probability that their offspring will have tiny ears. Report your answer as a percentage without decimal point

A man who is red-green color-blind marries a woman who is neither color-blind nor a carrier for this trait. Which statement would best describe their probable offspring?
chin fissure is a dominant trait controlled by a single gene. If a man (homozygous dominant) with chin fissure married to a woman (heterozygous dominant)with a chin fissure too, what is the probability that they will have a child without chin fissure?aid your answer with an illustration
After divorce, individual “A” decides to marry at random outside the pedigree. If the population allele frequency of the rare autosomal trait is 0.012, what are the chances of having an affected child for his first born of his second marriage?
Suppose that goats have one gene that codes for color, where A is brown and a is white. The goats also have another gene that codes for height, where B is tall and b is short. If these two genes are unlinked, what is the probability that a cross between Aa Bb × Aa bb parents will produce three out of five offspring that are white and tall? Enter your answer as a decimal, rather than as a percentage
If the A and the S alleles are co-dominant. What is the phenotype of a heterozygote (AS)?
A man and woman are both heterozygous for an autosomal recessive disease allele. They would like to have four children. What is the probability that the youngest and oldest children will be affected while the middle two children are not affected? Use two decimal places for your answer.
Assume that one of the students in your class is homozygous for the “Type A” allele and the other student is homozygous for the “Type B” allele. What blood type(s) would you expect to see in their offspring? What if the second was instead “Type O”? Cross two individuals who both have Type AB blood. What are the expected genotypic and phenotypic ratios in their offspring?
You know that cystic fibrosis runs in your mothers family. Your fathers family is not known to have it. Is it worse to have a parent with Costco fibrosis or a sibling with cystic fibrosis? Draw a small pedigree for both options make the appropriate assumptions and calculate the chances for each, then state your conclusion.
In humans brown eye color is dominant to blue eye color. Suppose that your mother is homozygous and your father is heterozygous and you have brown eyes. If you have a child with blue eyes, what is your genotype?
