In sex-linked inheritance, if a colour blind man mates with a heterozygous woman, what is the expected ratio of phenotypes among the offsprings? normal female : heterozygous female : normal male : colour-blind male (1 : 1:1:1) normal female : normal male : colour-blind male (2 :1:1) normal female : heterozygous female : normal male ( 1:1:2) heterozygous female: colour blind female: normal male: colour-blind male (1: 1: 1: 1)

A cross between two plants that both have yellowflowers produces 80 offspring plants, of which 38have yellow flowers, 22 have red flowers, and 20have white flowers. If one assumes that this variation in color is due to inheritance at a single locus,what is the genotype associated with each flowercolor, and how can you describe the inheritance offlower color?
Using Punnett Squares to Understand Inheritance Scenario 3: A one-eyed flying people-eater usually has purple skin. One-eyed flying people-eaters who are recessive for skin color are albino.

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?
Sex-linked inheritance involves the genes on the sex chromosomes. Because inheritance patterns differ between females and males, crosses involving sex-linked inheritance use X’s and Y’s and the results of the crosses are given in percentage of female and male offspring with the affected traits, not in ratios. In humans, the sex chromosomes are X and Y. Females have two X chromosomes (XX) and males have one X and one Y (XY). In males, whatever alleles are on the X chromosome are expressed, whether they are dominant or recessive. In females, if the trait is recessive she is called a carrier and does not express the trait (in other words the dominant, normal trait is expressed). In order for her to express the recessive trait, she must be homozygous recessive (X+X+). If the trait is dominant, she will express the trait. Therefore, a female denoted as X+X-is either a carrier (the most common scenario) or expresses the allele if thetrait is dominant. Colorblindness is an X-linked recessive…

Why do human sex-linked recessive traits typically show up in sons more than daughters? Hint: consider the probabilities involved in the inheritance of such traits.
The inheritance of colour in domestic pigeons involves several genes. The dominance hierarchy of three colour alleles is ash-red > blue-black > brown (ZA > ZB > Zb ).These colours are carried on the Z sex chromosome. Unlike humans, female pigeons have two different sex chromosomes (Z and W) and males have two of the same kind of sex chromosome (ZZ). In birds, males have two Z sex chromosomes (ZZ) and females have one Z and one W sex chromosome (ZW). Since female birds have only one Z chromosome, they have only one copy of all Z-linked genes and they express the phenotype of the allele that they get.Barred is a sex-linked dominant trait in chickens.
