I mean jsut say which option, thanks in advance.arrow_forwardThe mother of a family with 10 children has blood typeRh+. She also has a very rare condition (elliptocytosis,phenotype E) that causes red blood cells to be oval rather than round in shape but that produces no adverseclinical effects. The father is Rh− (lacks the Rh+ antigen)and has normal red blood cells (phenotype e). The children are 1 Rh+ e, 4 Rh+ E, and 5 Rh− e. Information isavailable on the mother’s parents, who are Rh+ E andRh− e. One of the 10 children (who is Rh+ E) marriessomeone who is Rh+ e, and they have an Rh+ E child.a. Draw the pedigree of this whole family.b. Is the pedigree in agreement with the hypothesisthat the Rh+ allele is dominant and Rh− is recessive?c. What is the mechanism of transmission ofelliptocytosis?d. Could the genes governing the E and Rh phenotypesbe on the same chromosome? If so, estimate the mapdistance between them, and comment on your resultarrow_forward

- Several genes in humans in addition to the ABO gene () give rise to recognizable antigens on the surface of the red blood cells. The Rh marker is determined by positive (R) and negative alleles () of gene R, where R is completely dominant to r. The presence of M and N surface proteins are controlled by two codominant alleles of gene L (LM and LM. For each mother-child pair, choose the father of the child from among the males in the right column. (Assume that all mothers and fathers are HH; there is no involvement of the Bombay phenotype.) Paternal genotypes maybe used once, more than once, or not at all. Each mother-child pair matches with one or more than one paternal genotype.

- A man with blood type A (whose mother was blood type O) has children with a woman that has blood type AB. The man and the woman are also heterozygous for the H antigen.

You can see both because they are codominant) i) What are the possible genotypes for someone with A blood type? ii) What about B blood type? iii) Let's assume that an person by the name of Dustin Beilber (this name sounds really familiar for some reason) is taken to trial in a paternity suit by a woman claiming that he is the father of her child. He claims he is not the father. At the trial, an expert witness reveals the blood types of all three: Dustin's blood type – B Mother's blood type – A Child's blood type – O Based on these data, is it possible that Dustin is the father of this child? (To put this in terms of the scientific method, you are trying to disprove the hypothesis that Dustin is the father). If you can't disprove this, it doesn't mean that he is the father, it simply means that you cannot reject the hypothesis). Explain your answer.arrow_forwardCan you please answer #10?arrow_forward
