Chapter 2, Problem 47P
The accompanying pedigree shows a family in which one child (II-1) has an autosomal recessive condition. On the basis of this fact alone, provide the following information.
a. Using A for the dominant allele and a for the recessive allele, give the genotypes for I-1, I-2, and II-1.
b. Using the same alleles, give the possible genotypes for II-2, II-3, and II-4.
c. What are the probabilities for each of the possible genotypes for II-2, II-3, and II-4?
d. What is the probability that all three of the children in generation II who have the dominant
e. What is the chance that among the three children in generation II who have the dominant phenotype, one of them is AA and two of them are Aa? (Hint: Consider all possible orders of genotypes.)

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?
Using the pedigree chart attached:
Above is a pedigree for colorblindness. Based on the pedigree, is the disease dominant or recessive and is it sex-linked or autosomal? Why? Furthermore, what is the probability that 18 on this chart is affected but the condition, and what is the probability that 18 is a carrier? Why? Are the probability of being a carrier and an affected individual different? Why?

Draw a 3-generation pedigree that depicts the entire scenario and assign the most likely genotypes to each individual. (You can use any letter you wish to represent the gene.) Yes, you should include Jane's parents and sister, and also John's parents and brother, as part of the pedigree. And don't forget Mia!arrow_forward
