2) The length of your eyelashes follows an autosomal inheritance pattern. Long eyelashes (E) aredominant over short eyelashes (e). A woman with type AB blood who is heterozygous foreyelashes has children with a man who is heterozygous type-A blood and who has shorteyelashes.a) Complete a Punnett square showing the possible genotypes of their offspring.b) What percent of their offspring would have short eyelashes and Type-A blood?

The Punnett square is a square diagram that is used to predict the genotypes of a particular cross…

Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive condition. Therefore, heterozygous (Cc) carriers do not display symptoms. Two parents who are carriers plan to start a family and you are a genetic counselor helping to advise them about their chances of having children affected by CF. a) Suppose the couple has 4 children, each one year apart. What is the probability that all 4 children will inherit CF? b) What is the probability that any 3 of their 4 children will not inherit CF, but 1 will be affected? c) What is the probability that their first child will not inherit CF, but the younger 3 children will inherit CF?
1. A) Apply the concept of sex linkage to explain why color blindness is more prevalent in men than in women. B) Mary is concerned that she may be a carrier for hemophilia, a sex-linked condition located on the X chromosome. Mary is married to John, who doesn't have hemophilia. Assuming Mary is a carrier, what are the genotype ratios expected for Mary and John's kids (specify for boys and for girls)? C) Mary and John have 2 boys, none of them has hemophilia. Can we use this fact as proof that Mary does not carry the allele for hemophilia? Explain your argument.

(b) If individual V-2 marries a normal individual, and if the condition has a pene-trance of 85 percent, what is the probability that their second child will express the trait?

Could someone please help me with this grade 11 bio dihybrid cross problem on how to solve this question, using a strategy in detail! Assume that curly hair (C) is dominant to straight hair. Albinism (P ) is recessive to normal skin pigmentation. A woman who is heterozygous for curly hair and albinism has a child. The father is homozygous dominant for curly hair and has albinism. (a) Determine the possible phenotypes for their child. (double-crossing, Punnet square) (how to display the traits) (b) Calculate the four different probabilities of a child beingboth a male and of each phenotype. (steps in solving this) (c) What is the probability that the child will expressalbinism and have curly hair like his father? (steps in solving this)
Clara has polydactyly, an autosomal dominant that is 80% penetrant. Clara inherited her polydactyly from her mother, her father had no polydactyly in his family. She has an extra toe on her left foot. Her husband Ralph has no polydactyly in his family. A) What is the chance that Clara will have a child that will inherit polydactyly? B) What is the chance that the child will express polydactyly. You can leave these as un-calculated equations.

2. Hemophilia is an X linked recessive trait. There is a woman who is a carrier for hemophilia and marries a man with hemophilia. a) Complete the Punnett Square (it is a google drawing so you will have to double click it to go to the drawing and type in and around the square. Hold the CONTROL (or Command) button and press the PERIOD button to write a superscript/exponent.) b) What are the possible genotypes of the children? c) Could any of their children have hemophilia? If so, would the child be male or female? Explain your reasoning.
Consider a couple: a woman who is homozygous for a recessive mutation that causes X-linked colorblindness, and a man with full color vision (he does not carry a copy of the mutation). a) What is the probability that a son of this couple will be colorblind? b) What is the probability that a daughter of the couple will be colorblind?
Freckles is determined by a single gene and having freckles is dominant over not having freckles. If a man with freckles and a woman without freckles have a child that does not have freckles then a)the man is heterozygous for the freckles gene. b)the child is heterozygous for the freckles gene. c)the woman and man are both heterozygous for the freckles gene. d) the woman is heterozygous for the freckles gen
I will be adding two questions here because I asked two of the same questions twice by accident earlier. A man and a woman do not have hemophilioa, but the womans father did. (Hemophilia is X-linked recessive). a) What is the probability that they will have a child with hemophilia? b) Is it possible for any of their daughters to be affected? Explain. A cross between a horse homozygous for red hair and a horse homozygous for white hair results in offspring with the coat colour called roan. When you look at the fur of the roan offspring you see both red and white hairs. What type of inheritance best explains this? a) blending inheritance b)codominance c)incomplete codominance d)multiple alleles
A couple, who are both normal, have a daughter who is albino and a son who is normal. a) what is the probability that their normal son is a carrier of the albinism gene? Show your work. b) the couple wants to have 3 more children; what is the probability that they will have 3 normal girls? Show your work.
