1. Hemophilia is due to a sex-linked gene. It is recessive and found on the X chromosome. A woman who is a carrier for hemophilia marries a normal man. What will be the possible phenotypes of their children? Use a punnet square. 2. A phenotypically normal man, who has a hemophiliac brother, marries a normal woman, who is not a carrier. What is the probability that any of their children will be hemophiliac? Use a punnet square. 3. Color-blindness is an X-linked, recessive trait.

6. Haemophilia is a relatively uncommon, sex-linked condition that is determined by a recessive allele on the X chromosome. It is a condition in humans in which the blood fails to clot normally. The following diagram shows a pedigree for haemophilia. Joe Sally Tom Tina 1 Jim Sheila 2 3 ? Mary Barry 4 5 6 7 Affected male Unaffected male Affected female Unaffected female a) Determine the possible genotypes for Jim, Sheila and their children (Sally, Tom and Mary). Use the symbols XH for the normal allele and Xh for the mutant allele and Y for the Y chromosome. Briefly state your logic in each case. b) Tom and Tina are expecting their first child and want to know the probability that the child had haemophilia i) if it is a boy or ii) if it is a girl. How would you advise them?

1. Dihybrid crosses: In dogs, black coat color(B) is dominant to yellow coat fur (b), and straight fur (F) is dominant to curly fur (f). The coat color gene and the fur texture gene are on different chromosomes, so they assort independently, and are not sex linkied. Determine the ratio of having a yellow dog with straight hair if the parents are: BbFF x Bbff a. What are the phenotype of the parents? b. Complete a punnet square. List all the genotypes of the predicted offsprin of this mating c. Based on your Punnet sqaure, list all the genotypes for offspring that would yield a dog with yellow straigh hair d. Based on the punnet square, what is the predicted phenotypic ratio for those parents having a dog with black curly hair.

Part 1 - High School Blues Evan and Alexia had been happily married for seven years and had a delightful five-year-old son named Ryan. One day, while going through his old high school biology textbook, Evan stumbled on some troubling information. In the section on the genetics of eye color, he read that two blue-eyed parents cannot produce a brown-eyed child. This was disturbing to him because both he and Alexia had blue eyes, but Ryan had brown eyes. He and Alexia were very much in love and Evan didn't believe his wife had been unfaithful. Puzzled, he questioned his wife, who confirmed she had been faithful to him. Evan had known Alexia long enough to recognize when she was lying and detected nothing but honesty in her response. What is going on?
