Hemophilia is a X-linked/sex linked recessive trait in humans. The dominant allele (H) causes normal blood clotting, while the recessive allele (h) causes hemophilia. A man who is normal marries a woman who is heterozygous for hemophilia. A. What are the genotypes of the parents? B. What are the genotypic probabilities of the resulting offspring? (Write the percentages/fractions and the genotype that corresponds to each number). C. What are the phenotypic probabilities of the resulting offspring? (Write the percentages/fractions and the phenotype that corresponds to each number).

Hemophilia is a sex-linked trait where XH gives normal blood clotting and is dominant to the hemophilia allele X h Identify the genotypes of… 1) a woman with normal blood clotting whose father had hemophilia 2) a normal man whose father had hemophilia. What is the probability that a mating between these two individuals will produce a child, regardless of sex, that has hemophilia?
Colorblindness is inherited as an X-linked recessive trait while pattern baldness is controlled by an autosomal gene that is dominant in males but recessive in females. A colorblind man who is also homozygous for baldness has children with a woman who carries normal genes for both traits. What is the probability that any of their child will be: a. Colorblind, bald male b. Colorblind, normal-haired male c. Female with normal sight and bald
Color blindness in humans is controlled by an X-linked completely recessive allele (Xc), while breast cancer is controlled by an autosomal completely dominant allele, B. A color blind male, who is a heterozygote carrier for breast cancer has three children/n with a normal eyed female (whose mother was color blind), who is homozygote recessive for the breast cancer allele. What is the probability that out of three children, 2 will be color blind males, and not show breast cancer, and one will be a color blind female, who shows breast cancer?
Hemophilia is a disease caused by a gene found on the X chromosome. Therefore, it is a sex-linked disease which is caused by the recessive allele. Suppose, a man with hemophilia marries a woman who is homozygous dominant for the trait, what is the chance of having children who are hemophiliacs? (XH = normal; Xh= hemophiliac) * a. 0% b. 75% c. 100% d. 25%
Black eye (B) is dominant over brown eye (b). A man that is a homozygous dominant black-eyed marries a woman that is a heterozygous black-eyed. The offspring resulted to 50% homozygous black and 50% heterozygous black. If one of their heterozygous children marries another heterozygous partner. Regardless of its gender, what are the genotypes of their children? a. 25% BB, 50% Bb, 25% bb b. 50% BB, 25% Bb, 25% bb c. 25% BB, 25% Bb, 50% bb d. 0% BB, 75% Bb, 25% bb In Law of Codominance, a pure line dominant trait crossed with a recessive trait will result to the appearance of both dominant and recessive trait in the offspring. What is the percentage of having a red-haired offspring if the parental genotype is both a heterozygous roan haired? Red hair is a dominant trait and white hair is a recessive trait. a. 100% b. 75% c. 50% d. 25% e. 0%
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 carries normal genes for both traits. What is the probability that any of their child will be: a. Hemophilic, normal-haired male b. Hemophilic, bald male c Female with normal blood clotting and bald Note: Show how you derived your answers.
In humans, the genes for coloblindedness and hemophilia re both located on the X chromosome with no corresponding gene in the Y. These are both recessive alleles. a. If a man and a woman, both with normal vision, marry and have a colorblind son, draw the Punnet square that illustrates this. b. If the man dies and the woman remarries to a colorblind man, draw a Punnet Square showing the type of children could be expected from hre second marriage. How many/what percentages of each could ne expected
Colour-blindness is the result of an X-linked recessive allele, Xc. The allele for normal eyesight is XC. (a) A woman with normal colour vision whose father was colour-blind marries a colour-blind man. Give the genotypes and phenotypes of their children. What ratio of their children can be expected to be colour-blind? (b) A man with normal colour vision whose father was colour-blind marries a woman carrier of the colour-blind allele. What is the likelihood that their children will be colour-blind? Carriers of the trait?
In humans, the ABO blood type is under the control of autosomal multiple alleles. Color blindness is a recessive X-linked trait. If two parents who are both type A and have normal vision produce a son who is color-blind and is type O, what is the probability that their next child will be a female who has normal vision and is type O?
A man who has color blindness and type O blood has children with a woman who has normal color vision and type AB blood. The woman’s father had color blindness. Color blindness is determined by an X-linked gene, and blood type is determined by an autosomal gene. a. What are the genotypes of the man and the woman? b. What proportion of their children will have color blindness and type B blood? c. What proportion of their children will have color blindness and type A blood? d. What proportion of their children will be color blind and have type AB blood?
Cystic fibrosis is a recessive human condition. A male with Cystic fibrosis and a woman with a dominant phenotype have sevral children, in which one displays Cystic fibrosis. What can you conclude about the genotype of the maternal parent and what is the probability that a child who does not display Cystic fibrosis is heterozygous?
A sex-linked recessive allele rg causes a red-green colorblindness in humans. A normal woman whose father was colorblind marries a colorblind man. A. What genotypes are possible for the mother of the colorblind man? B. What are the chances that the first child from this marriage will be a colorblind boy? C. Of the girls born from this union, what proportion can be expected to be colorblind? D. Of all the children of these parents
