B) Mary is concerned that she may be a carrier for hemophilia, a sex-linked condition located on the X chromosome. Mary is married to John, who doesn't have hemophilia. Assuming Mary is a carrier, what are the genotype ratios expected for Mary and John's kids (specify for boys and for girls)? C) Mary and John have 2 boys, none of them has hemophilia. Can we use this fact as proof that Mary does not carry the allele for hemophilia? Explain your argument.

Two people are planning to have children together. Each person is heterozygous for the gene “A”. Using this letter, first list all the possible gametes that the two people can produce. Next, write all the possible genotypes and phenotypes for their offspring, using the correct genetic terminology (e.g., “genotype is homozygous dominant” “phenotype is dominant”). HINT: Use the gametes to construct a Punnett square and predict the possible offspring (you do not need to include the Punnett square in your answer).
