If both a husband and wife carry genes for brown and blue eyes, genetic theory states that the probability the couple will have a blue-eyed child is 0:25. Suppose the couple plans to have 4 children.
(a) Find the probability that the couple will have
i. exactly two children with blue eyes
ii. two or fewer children with blue eyes.
(b) Find:
i. the mean (expected) number of children with blue eyes,
ii. the variance and standard deviation.

The probability that brown-eyed parents, both with the recessive gene for blue, will have a child with brown eyes is 0.65. If such parents have 6 children, what is the probability that they will have (A) All blue-eyed children? (B) Exactly 5 children with brown eyes? (C) At least 5 children with brown eyes?

The genes for dark eyes (black or brown) are usually dominant over genes for blue or gray eyes. A man with black eyes marries a woman with light gray eyes. They have two children, a boy with black eyes, and a girl with blue eyes. What are the genotypes of the man, his wife, and both children?

13. Genetics. Hereditary characteristics are determined by pairs of genes. A gene pair for a particular characteristic is transmitted from parents to offspring by choosing one gene at random from the mother's pair, and, independently, one at random from the father's Each gene may have several forms, or alleles. For example, human beings have an allele (B) for brown eyes, and an allele (b) for blue eyes. A person with allele pair BB has brown...
