- A color-blind man marries a woman with normal vision whose father was color-blind. Remember that color-blindness is an X-linked recessive trait. Hint: see figure 12.7 in book.

One allele causes black fur (X) and one allele gives the cat orange fur (X"). These alleles act in a codominant manner, because when a cat has two different alleles (XB Xb), the cat has a pattern called tortoise shell, where the cat has both orange and black hairs. The Y chromosome does not have this coat color gene There is another gene that affects coat color in cats called the piebalding gene. This gene is on an autosomal chromosome and the alleles affect the amount of white patches that appear in the cat's coat, Some cats (ss) have o white patches and their other colors are blended, not patchy. Some cats (SS or Ss) have white patches and their other colors are…arrow_forwardDuchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), marked by muscular degeneration, results from an X- linked recessive gene.

Can there be a carrier male?arrow_forward
