1. Mary and Joe are both healthy individuals. Joe has a mother who suffered from cystic fibrosis, an autosomal recessive disorder. Mary has been genetically tested in order to find out if she has the allele responsible for this disease and her tests came out positive. They are planning on having two children together in the near future. What is the probability that she and Joe will have either 2 boys who have the disorder, OR that they have one boy who has the disorder and one boy who does not? (in other words, what is the probability that any of these two outcomes takes place? a) 1/8 b) 1/16 c) 3/32 d) 1/64 e) 9/64
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?
