- Doing genetic analysis it is determined that two parents are heterozygous for two separate unlinked recessive traits (i.e., both parents are heterozygous for both loci). Given this genetic information, what is the probability of their having a child which is homozygous recessive for both traits?arrow_forwardA colorblind man marries a female who is a carrier for colorblindness. What is the probability that they will have a child who is colorblind?arrow_forwardIn humans, free ear lobes (E) is dominant over attached ear lobes (e), and brown eyes (B) is dominantover blue eyes (b). A man with free ear lobes and brown eyes marries a woman with attached ear lobes andbrown eyes. Of four children, one has free ear lobes and brown eyes, one has free ear lobes and blue eyes,one has attached ear lobes and brown eyes, and one has attached ear lobes and blue eyes. Determine thegenotypes of the parents.arrow_forward
- The trait of having short eyelashes is recessive in humans. A male with short eyelashes has two children with a female. One child has short eyelashes and the other has the long eyelash phenotype. What are the genotypes of the two parents?arrow_forwardIf a woman homozygous for color blindness has children with a man having normal vision, what would be the potential genotypes and phenotypes of her offspring?arrow_forwardColorblindness is an X linked gene. Normal vision (XN ) is dominant over colorblind (Xn). Cross a carrier female to a normal male. How many of their children will be colorblind? How many of their sons will be colorblind? How many of their daughters will be colorblind?arrow_forward
- Armin and Annie are going to have a baby. Annie has dimples in her cheeks (a dominant trait), while Armin does not. You know that Annie's father has dimples in both cheeks, while her mother does not. Her mother must have the recessive trait. Annie's father has the dominant trait, but you don’t know if he is a homozygote or heterozygote. But you still know what Annie’s genotype must be because Annie must have a recessive allele since that is all she could have inherited from her mother. Since Annie has a dimples you know she inherited a dominant allele from her father. What are the chances Armin and Annie’s baby will have dimples? Determine the Phenotype and Genotype and its probability.arrow_forwardIn humans, the gene for albinism (a) is recessive to the gene for normal skin pigmentation (A). If two heterozygous persons have children, what is the probability they will have a child who is an albino? What is the probability they will have a child that is a carrier of the recessive gene?arrow_forwardIn humans, brown eyes (B) are dominant over blue (b)*. A brown-eyed man marries a blue-eyed woman and they have three children, two of whom are brown-eyed and one of whom is blue-eyed. Draw the Punnett square that illustrates this marriage. What is the man’s genotype? What are the genotypes of the children?arrow_forward
