In humans, the allele for normal blood clotting, H, is dominant to the allele for hemophilia, h. The trait is X-linked. A female hemophiliac has a child with a man who is not a hemophiliac. What is the probability that this couple's child is a hemophiliac and what is the child's gender? Your response must include a Punnett square with correct nomenclature.

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 4.Assuming that the woman in the couple is a carrier, what is the probability that the couple’s first son will have hemophilia?
Hemophilia is due to a sex-linked gene. It is recessive and found on the X chromosome. A woman who is a carrier for hemophilia marries a normal man. What will be the possible phenotypes of their children? (use the letter “H”)
A woman with blood type B gives birth to a child with blood type B. Could a man with type A blood be the father? Show a Punnet Square if needed.
What would the offspring's blood type be if the mother is type O+ (she is homozygous for Rh factor) and the father is A- (he is homozygous for type A)? Hint: You have to do two Punnett squares. The two Punnett squares must be shown to get the full points. After doing the Punnett squares, write down the possibilities of the offspring’s blood type.
3) Queen Victoria of England, who ruled from 1837-1901, is believed to have been the carrier of hemophilia. Hemophilia is an X-linked disease in which the blood is unable to form clots. Please make a Punnet Square using the scenario below and answer the following questions. Queen Victoria married a man who did not have the hemophilia trait or disease. What is the likelihood that they would have a child with hemophilia? What is the likelihood that they would have a son with hemophilia? What is the likelihood that they would have a daughter with hemophilia?
Hemophilia A, a condition in which blood does not clot properly, is a recessive trait located on the X chromosome (Xh). A woman heterozygous for the trait marries a normal male. What is the probability that this couple will have hemophiliac daughters? What is the probability that this couple will have hemophiliac sons?
Hemophilia is a blood disorder which is sex-linked. A woman carrier has children with a normal man. Determine the chances for girls and boys with hemophilia. [Remember that females have the XX genotype and males have the XY genotype. Do not place an allele on the Y chromosome. Example: XN Xn for female; Xn Y for male]
A woman who is a carrier for X-linked hemophilia (she does not have the disease) marries a man who does not have hemophilia. They have a daughter, named Angela, who does not have the disease. Angela marries George, who also does not have hemophilia. Angela and George have a son named Robbie. What is the chance that Robbie will have hemophilia? O 1/4 O 1/3 O 1/2 0 1/8
An A+ male impregnates a woman who is unsure of her blood type. Which blood type would the mother have to be for the baby to be at risk of a hemolytic disease?
A man with hemophilia has a daughter of normal phenotype. She marries a man who is normal for the trait. The probability of their son to be a hemophiliac is 1/4. Its true or false? Explain.
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
is thal ui ANensn hilia is an inherited genetic disorder linked to the nosome that results in ineffective blood clotting when a blood is damaged. The most common type, hemophilia A, occurs 5000 male births. Any male who carries the gene will express enotype. Hemophilia is extremely rare in women. Parents Carrler female Normal male couple wish to have children. The woman knows she a rrier for hemophilia. The man is not a hemophiliac.
