Can a male be a carrier of red-green color blindness?
Analysis of X-Linked Dominant and Recessive Traits A young boy is color-blind. His one brother and five sisters are not. The boy has three maternal uncles and four maternal aunts. None of his uncles children or grandchildren is color-blind. One of the maternal aunts married a color-blind man, and half of her children, both male and female, are color-blind. The other aunts married men who have normal color vision. All their daughters have normal vision, but half of their sons are color-blind. a. Which of the boys four grandparents transmitted the gene for color blindness? b. Are any of the boys aunts or uncles color-blind? c. Is either of the boys parents color-blind?
Redgreen color blindness is an X-linked recessive disorder in humans. Your friend is the daughter of a color-blind father. Her mother had normal color vision, but her maternal grandfather was color-blind. What is the probability that your friend is color-blind? (a) 1 (b) (c) (d) (e) 0
In humans color vision is X-linked, the gene for color vision is located on the X chromosome but is absent on the Y chromosome. Normal color vision (XN) is dominant over colorblindness (Xn). Suppose a colorblind man fathers the children of a woman with genotype XNXN. What is the genotype of the father? What proportion of daughters will be colorblind? What proportion of the sons will be colorblind?
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?
In humans, being right handed (R) is dominant over being left handed (r), and normal vision (X+) is dominant over color blindness (Xc). Color blindness is a X-linked (a.k.a sex linked) trait. Two right-handed parents with normal vision have a son who is color blind and left handed. What are the genotypes of the parents for right-handedness and color blindness?
Color blindness is an X-linked recessive disease. A female and a male with normal vision have 4 children. The phenotypes of the children are listed below: 2 Colorblind males, 1 normal vision female, one normal vision male. Given these results, the female must be a carrier for colorblindness. True False
In humans, one of the genes determining color vision islocated on the X chromosome. The dominant form (C )produces normal color vision; red-green color deficiency(c) is recessive. If a man with normal color visionmarries a color-deficient woman, what is the probabilityof them having a color-deficient son? A color-deficientdaughter?
Red-green color blindness is an X-linked recessive disorder. If Allison is heterozygous (a carrier), and her husband, Michael, is NOT colorblind. What is the chance that their male children will be colorblind? (Note: you are calculating the probability for their MALE children only, in other words if they have 1 male child, what is the probability that he will be born with the disease?) 0% 25% or 1/4 50% or 2/4 75% or 4/4 100% or 4/4
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?
A color-blind man marries a woman with normal vision whose father was color-blind. Remember that color-blindness is an X-linked recessive trait. Hint: see figure 12.7 in book. A) What is the probability that their first child will be a color-blind daughter? B) What is the probability that their first son will be color-blind?
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), marked by muscular degeneration, results from an X- linked recessive gene. Thus, a female who is heterozygous for this gene and does not have the disease can be a carrier. What kind of offspring can you expect from a DMD-affected male and a carrier female? Can there be a carrier male?
