- E.
8%; 14.7%
Homework Answers
Let p be the fraction of normal males= fraction X+
Let q be the fraction of colourblind males= fraction Xcb out of
total pool of X chromosomes.
To make a male, you take 1 X chromome:
~ probability Xcb/Y = q and
X+/Y = p therefore q = 0.08(given) and p = 0.92
For females to be colourblind both X should get affected gene so
Xcb/Xcb = q2 = (0.8)2 = 0.64%
For carrier females only one X should be affected i.e
Xcb/X = 2pq =14.7%

SEX-LINKAGE Red-Green color-blindness is sex-linked X-linked recessive trait. A normal sighted woman whose father is color- blind marries a color-blind man. they have 20 children. Of those 20, 6 are normal sighted females, 5 are color-blind females, 4 are normal sighted males and 5 are color-blind males. 7. What are the genotypes of the parents and all the children? 8. Theoretically, what would be the genotypic and phenotypic ratios of the offspring?

Red-green color blindness is an X-linked recessive trait. Heterozygous females have normal color vision but are carriers of the allele for red-green color blindness. Based on the information presented in the pedigree, select all of the females from the list below that are known carriers of red-green color blindness.
A woman with red-green color-blindness has a mother with normal vision.
A woman with red-green color-blindness has a mother with normal vision. Knowing that color-blindness is a sex-linked recessive gene, can you determine what her father's phenotype is? (yes or no) If so, what is it?The woman marries a man with normal vision. What is the probability they will have sons who are red-green color-blind? What is the probability they will have daughters who are red-green color-blind?

59. Natural Science Color blindness is an inherited characteris- tic that is more common in males than in females. If M represents male and C represents red-green color blindness, we use the rela- tive frequencies of the incidences of males and red-green color blindness as probabilities to get P(C)= .039, P(MnC) .035, and P(MUC) .495.*

Red-green color blindness is a sex-linked trait, with the normal vision phenotype being dominant (C) and the color blind (c) phenotype being recessive. If you are male and your father is color blind, what is the chance (expressed as a percentage) that you will inherit his trait for color blindness? What if your mother is a carrier for color blindness (but your father is not color blind), what is the chance of you being color blind? Make sure...

Color-blindness is gender-based, with the majority of sufferers being males. Roughly 8% of white males have some form of color-blindness, while the incidence among white females is only 19 A random sample of 20 white males and 40 white females was chosen. Let X be the number of males (out of the 20) who are color blind. Let y be the number of females (out of the 40) who are color-blind. Let Z be the total number of color-blind individuals...
