Chapter 4, Problem 6P

The ABO and MN blood groups are given below for four sets of parents ( 1 to 4 ) and four children (a to d). Recall that the ABO blood group has three alleles: IA , IB , and i . The MN blood group has two codominant alleles, M and N . Using your knowledge of these genetic systems, match each child with every set of parents who might have conceived the child, and exclude any parental set that could not have conceived the child.

If a man with dark skin whose genotype is AaBB reproduces with a woman who has light skin (aaBb), what are the possible skin colors that their children will have? Develop a Punnett square and list the possible genotypes & phenotypes. For your convenience, a table is presented below that shows several possible genotypes & phenotypes:   Genotypes Phenotypes   AABB Very dark skin AABb or AaBB Dark skin AaBb, AAbb, or aaBB Medium brown skin Aabb or aaBb Light skin aabb Very light skin
Achondroplasia is a hereditary condition caused by a dominant allele in humans (dominant allele A). This disorder affects bone growth specifically in long bones of the upper and lower limbs by preventing the ossification of bones from cartilage. Determine the genotypes of the parents and offspring for the following family scenarios in a and b below.  Two parents who have the Achondroplasia phenotype have 4 children where 1 is normal NOTE: You must draw a Punnet square to determine the possible genotypes of te children. When two alternative genotypes are possible for an individual, indicate both.
Given the following pedigree: Is the trait autosomal or sex-linked? Is the trait dominant or recessive? Based only on the information given, what is the probability that I-2 is heterozygous? Give the genotypes of individuals II-3, II-4. What is the probability that individual III-1 is purebreeding?
