Which blood type phenotypes (A, B, AB, and/or O) provide anunambiguous genotype? Is it possible for a couple to produce afamily of children in which all four blood types are represented? Ifso, what would the genotypes of the parents have to be?
If a girl has blood type AB and her mother is also AB, what are the genotype(s) and corresponding phenotype(s) of any male who could not be the girl’s father?
In a disputed parentage case, the child is blood type O, while the mother is blood type A. What blood type would exclude a male from being the father? Would the other blood types prove that a particular male was the father?

- Given the karyotype shown at right, is this a male or a female? Normal or abnormal? What would the phenotype of this individual be?arrow_forwardThe following pedigree shows the pattern of inheritance of red-green color blindness in a family. Females are shown as circles and males as squares; the squares or circles of individuals affected by the trait are filled in black. What is the chance that a son of the third-generation female indicated by the arrow will be color blind if the father is not color blind? If he is color blind?arrow_forwardA pedigree analysis was performed on the family of a man with schizophrenia. Based on the known concordance statistics, would his MZ twin be at high risk for the disease? Would the twins risk decrease if he were raised in an environment different from that of his schizophrenic brother?arrow_forward
- Normally you cant inherit both copies of a homologous chromosome from the same parent. Why? Assuming that no crossing over has occurred, how likely is it that one of your non-sex chromosomes is an exact copy of the same chromosome your maternal grandmother had? Explain your answer.arrow_forwardAn allele responsible for Marfan syndrome Section 13.4 is inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern. What is the chance that a child will inherit the allele if one parent does not carry it and the other is heterozygous?arrow_forwardIn the cross between a female AaBbccDdee and male AabbCcDdee, what proportion of the progeny are expected to be phenotypically identical to the female parent?arrow_forward

Is this man a legitimate child of these parents? What is a possible phenotype of an individual that results from a woman with type AB blood and a man with type B blood? Explain with diagrams.arrow_forward
