Question
Please explain question 4
4.
Red color vision is determined by a gene on the X chromosome (a sex-linked trait). A recessive allele responsible for red color-blindness. The woman is red color-blind, she has a child with a man with normal red color vision.
What are the genotypes of this couple?
What is the probability of the couple having a daughter who is red colorblind?

- Mutant female: yellow body and purple eyes. Male: Normal Use: https://www.sciencecourseware.org/FlyLabJS/ Which mutant alleles are dominant? Which mutant alleles are recessive? Which mutant alleles are sex-linked? Which mutant alleles are autosomal? Can you tell at this point if the two genes are linked? Show the results of the dihybrid analysis. Are genes segregating independently? What is the evidence for or against this? Show the crosses you will use to obtain the mapping data. For the mapping crosses, Write out the crossing scheme and make a table of the results (ignore sex in this table, combine the male and female progeny). Identify the parental classes and the recombinant classes. For a 3-point cross, identify the double cross overs. Show your calculations for the recombination frequencies between the three genes (for the 3-point cross) or the two genes (for the two-point crosses). Draw a map of the Drosophila chromosomes 2, 3, and X, including…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.

- Ocular albinism is a sex-linked recessive disease carried on the X chromosome. A female carrier mates with a male with this disorder. What percentage of all of their children is predicted to be an albino female? 1) 0% 2) 25% 3) 50% 4) 75% 5) 100%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_forward1. 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 a punnet square. 2. A phenotypically normal man, who has a hemophiliac brother, marries a normal woman, who is not a carrier. What is the probability that any of their children will be hemophiliac? Use a punnet square. 3. Color-blindness is an X-linked, recessive trait. If a normal-sighted woman, whose father was color-blind, marries a colorblind man, what is the probability that they will have a son who is color-blind? Use a punnet square. 4. A man and woman, both of normal vision, have: 1) a color-blind son (#1) who has a daughter of normal vision 2) a daughter (#1) of normal vision who has one color-blind son and one normal vision son 3) another daughter (#2) of normal vision who has five sons, all with normal vision What are the probable genotypes of the…arrow_forward
