One gene for an eye color in dogs is sex linked (X chromosome). The dominant allele (G) produces brown color, the recessive allele (g) produces black color and the heterozygous condition produces hazel color. Give the sex and eye color of all possible offspring results from the mating of a black eye color male and with hazel eye color female. Show your work.

- Hemophilia, disease in which the blood lacks a clotting factor, is caused by an X linked recessive gene. Joe doe not have hemophilia and Lucille is heterozygous for the condition. What is the chance that their MALE child will have hemophilia? (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% 1/4 or 25% 2/4 or 50% 3/4 or 75% 4/4 or 100%arrow_forwardIn humans, as well as in many other animals and some plants, the sex of the individual is determined by sex chromosomes. The sex chromosomes are one pair of non-homologous chromosomes: XX represents a female, while XY represents a male. When a gene for a specific trait Is attached to the X or Y chromosome, we say it is sex-linked, and when it is attached to the X chromosome, we say it is X-linked. Alleles for these linked traits, such as hemophilia or color blindness, crosses, may be recessive or dominant. This is one possible cross (above) for the X-linked condition known as hemophilia. Which pair of parents is most likely to have a hemophiliac daughter? A) carrier mother and unaffected father B) carrier mother and hemophiliac father hemophiliac mother and a carrier father D) unaffected, non-carrier mother and hemophiliac fatherarrow_forwardExplain this to me…..arrow_forward
- Colorblindness 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_forwardRed-green colorblindness is inherited in an X-linked recessive pattern in humans. A colorblind man and a woman with normal vision have four children, and one of them is a colorblind male. Does the mother have to be a carrier in this case? (Yes or No) What is the probability of the next child in this family being both colorblind and male? No, 25% Yes, 25% No, 50% Yes, 50%arrow_forwardCan you please not type the answer can you write it on a paperarrow_forward
- In fruit flies, the wild type (red) eye colour is dominant to white eye colour. This gene is carried on the X chromosome. The allele for wild type body colour is dominant to ebony body colour. This gene is carried on the autosome. A wild type female fruit fly that is homozygous for both traits mates with a male fruit fly with white eyes and ebony body colour. What phenotypic ratio would be expected in their offspring? Ratio: A female with red A female with white A male with red A male with white Phenotype: eyes and wild type eyes and ebony eyes and wild type eyes and ebony body colour body colour body colour body colourarrow_forwardWhat is/are the possible genotype(s) of this cat for the Sex-linked Red gene? If this cat only has two sex chromosomes, what sex is this cat? Q67 Sex-linked red gene: determines red or not red color; located on X chromosome 2 alleles: Xo (red color) X+ (non-red color) MacBook Airarrow_forwardAlbinism is an autosomal recessive condition where little or no melanin pigment is produced. Awoman (call her W) had an affected brother (B). This woman's daughter (M) is planning to have achild. The intended father (F) in this mating had a sister (S) who has albinism. W's father is red-green color blind (an X-linked recessive disorder). F's father is also red-green color blind. All other family members have normal vision. Re-draw the pedigree of thisfamily to include this extra information. Use defined symbols to indicate genotypes. g. Determine the probability that F will pass on red-green color blindness to his future children.h. Determine the probability that M is a carrier for red-green color blindness or for albinism i.Determine the probability that M is a carrier for red-green color blindness and for albinism i.Determine the overall probability that this couple's first child will be affected by bothconditions. k. Using the same genotypes as in part j for the couple, determine…arrow_forward
