A man with blood type A and a woman of blood type B have a baby girl of blood type O. The man sues his wife for divorce, on the grounds that it is not possible for the baby to be theirs (since the blood type is not A, B. or AB). Evaluate the lawsuit on the basis of genetics (A, B alleles are co-dominant over the recessive O allele).
IA = A allele IB = B allele iO = O allele
A person is heterozygous for the Freckles phenotype (Ff) and also heterozygous for the PTC-tasting phenotype (Tt).
This person's genotype for these two traits is represented as FfTt.
A) How many unique gametes could be produced by this individual if you consider these two traits?
B) List the different allele combinations that could result.
