1. Which best describes the mode of inheritance of the afflicting allele in the following pedigree? A. autosomal dominant B. autosomal recessive C. X-linked dominant D. X-linked recessive 2. Suppose that an allele, b, of a X-linked gene is recessive and lethal (if a wild-type allele is not present). A man marries a woman who is heterozygous for this gene. If this couple had a large number of normal children, what would be the predicted sex ratio of these children (ratio of male children to female children)?

1. Red-green colorblindness is caused by a recessive allele (x) at an X-linked gene, and albinism is caused by a recessive allele (a) at an autosomal gene. A phenotypically normal woman (Sara) has a father who is colorblind, and she knows that she is a carrier for albinism. She plans to have a child with a colorblind man (Abdul) who is also a carrier for albinism. What is the probability that Sara and Abdul's child will have one of the conditions, but not both? (C. Follow the steps below to answer this question. a) What is the cross? b) What are the target genotypes? Note: it might be useful to come back to this one and double- check it after you have completed step c, below. Break this down to the single gene level by answering the following questions: a. What is the proportion of normal to albino offspring? Show the Punnett square: b. What is the proportion of normal to colorblind offspring? Show the Punnett square: d) What is the probability that Sara and Abdul's child will have one…

1. Hemophilia is a disease inherited as a X-linked recessive trait while pattern baldness is controlled by an autosomal gene that is dominant in males and recessive in females. A hemophilic man who is also homozygous for baldness has children with a woman who is not hemophilic but a carrier and heterozygous normal-haired. Show the parental genotypes, the Genotypic ratio (GR) of the offspring and their phenotypic ratio. Separate the total number of the male offspring from female offspring. For example, if there are 8 total number of offspring, count how many are females and how many are males. So if there are 4 females, then the denominator for the genotypic ratio and phenotypic ratio for female offspring is 4. You can convert it to percentage if you want. Answer the following: a. Among the female offspring, what is the probability of having hemophilic but normal haired child? b. Among the male offspring, what is the chance of having a child with normal blood clotting but bald?
Match the mode of inheritance with its description. (1) autosomal recessive A. inherited by males from carrier mothers(2) autosomal dominant B. inherited from one affected parent(3) X-linked recessive C. inherited from two carrier (unaffected) parents
1 II 1 4 6. II 1 2 4 5 6. 8. IV The above image shows a pedigree for a monogenic inherited disease. Although this trait is only observed in males in this family, the pattern of inheritance of this disease is autosomal recessive. Use the pedigree to explain why the inheritance of this disease cannot be autosomal dominant. If this trait is X-linked recessive, what would be the genotypes of the people in Row I? 2. 2. 3. 2. 3.
8. Huntington’s disease is a degenerative disease of the nervous system that strikes in middle age. The allele that causes the disease (H) is dominant to the allele that results in the normal condition (h). Answer the following questions about the inheritance of this disease. A. What is the genotype of a man who is normal but whose father had Huntington’s disease? B. What is the genotype of a woman who has Huntington’s disease if both of her parents had Huntington’s disease? C. If a man who is heterozygous for Huntington’s disease marries a woman who is normal, what would you expect for the genotypes and phenotypes of their children? D. If a normal man marries a woman who is homozygous for Huntington’s disease, what do you expect for the genotypes and phenotypes of their children?
