1- Albinism is inherited through a recessive allele (a). Juan has normal skin color. His Mom and Dad also have normal skin color. Juan marries Paige, who also has normal skin color. Surprisingly, their first child is an albino. What is everyone's genotype? Juan _______ Juan's Mom __________ Juan's Dad _________ Paige ________ Juan and Paige's first child ___________ Reminder: No guessing in genetics. What is the probability that their next child will be an albino? Show your work in a Punnet square. 2- Mr. and Mrs. Flynn are concerned because their new baby doesn't resemble either of them and has type O blood. Mr. Flynn is type A and Mrs. Flynn is type B. They're sure that it's impossible to have a baby with a different blood type than the parents, and so they conclude that a mistake has been made. Are they correct? Explain your answer. Be specific. Use the correct blood alleles (IA, IB, i) in your explanation. genotypes: Mr. Flynn _________ Mrs. Flynn __________ their baby ___________ 3- Question 10 Challenge Question! If a pregnant woman had a karyotype prepared for her baby before birth, would it be more useful in predicting the risk of Down Syndrome or Tay Sachs disease? Explain your answer completely and in detail.
