Hemophilia is an X-linked disease associated with the inability to produce specific proteins in the blood-clotting pathway. Shown above is a family pedigree tree in which family members afflicted with the disease are shown with filled-in squares (male) or circles (females). A couple is trying to determine the likelihood of passing on the disease to their future children (represented by the ? symbol above) because the hemophilia runs in the woman’s family

A typical pedigree for a family that carries neurofibromatosis is shown below. Note that carriers are not indicated with half-colored shapes in this chart. Use the letter "N" to indicate the dominant neurofibromatosis allele, and the letter "n" for the normal allele. Use the below pedigree chart and your knowledge on how to interpret a pedigree chart to answer questions # 7-9. 1 Nn nn nn 3 nn 7. Is individual #1 most likely homozygous dominant or heterozygous? Explain how you can tell. 8. What is the genotype of individual #2? Explain how you can tell. 9. What is the genotype of individual #3? Explain how you can tell. 2)
The following pedigree shows the inheritance of a rare genetic disorder. Determine the most likely mode of inheritance, and for exam practice (unmarked on the assignment) write a clear justification for your conclusion. Remember that some pedigrees don't provide sufficient data/information to discriminate between possibilities. If that is the case, select all the possible answers.
