This pedigree traces the inheritance of a trait in humans. Based on this pedigree, is the allele for this disease dominant or recessive? Is it sex-linked? Explain. What genotypes are most probable for the individuals labeled 4, 7, and 10?
Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a disease that results from a recessive gene.Suppose that two unaffected parents produce a child with PKU. a. What is the probability that a sperm from the father will contain the PKU allele?b. What is the probability that an egg from the mother will contain the PKU allele?c. What is the probability that their next child will have PKU?d. What is the probability that their next child will be heterozygous for the PKU gene?

Porphyria is a genetic disorder caused by the inability to properly metabolize a component of hemoglobin. King George III is suspected to have been afflicted with this disorder. Assume that both George and his Queen suffered from this disorder and they had one afflicted child and one normal child. Is porphyria inherited in a dominant or recessive fashion? What must be the genotype of both George and his Queen? Using punnett square, show ALL work used to achieve your answer.

A couple who are about to get married learn from studying their family histories that, in both their families, theirunaffected grandparents had siblings with cystic fibrosis(a rare autosomal recessive disease).a. If the couple marries and has a child, what is theprobability that the child will have cystic fibrosis?b. If they have four children, what is the chance that thechildren will have the precise Mendelian ratio of 3:1 fornormal:cystic fibrosis?c. If their first child has cystic fibrosis, what is theprobability that their next three children will be normal?
In humans, the genetic disease cystic fibrosis is caused by a recessive allele (a). The normal (healthy) allele is dominant (A). What is the genotype of someone who has cystic fibrosis? What are the two different genotypes that a healthy person could have? If two people were both heterozygous for the cystic fibrosis gene, what fraction of their children would be likely to have this disease? Hint: Draw a Punnett square to figure it out.

In mice, dwarfism is caused by an X-linked recessive allele, and pink coat is caused by an autosomal dominantallele (coats are normally brownish). If a dwarf femalefrom a pure line is crossed with a pink male from a pureline, what will be the phenotypic ratios in the F1 and F2 ineach sex? (Invent and define your own gene symbols.)
Does the phenotype indicated by the red circles and squares in this pedigree show an inheritance pattern that is autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, or X-linked?
