question 7
part a)
X-linked recessive inheritance is a mode of inheritance in which a mutation in a gene on the X chromosome causes the phenotype to be always expressed in males (who are necessarily homozygous for the gene mutation because they have one X and one Y chromosome) and in females who are homozygous for the gene mutation.
rest are well explained in image.
Please thumbs up if this answer helped you in any way. Thanking you in anticipation.

GENETICS PROBLEMS 1. The gene for widow's peak (W) is dominant to the gene for straight hairline (w). A male homozygote with widow's peak marries a female homozygote with straight hairline, what are the possible genotypic and phenotypic ratios of the F1 and F2 generations that may result from the union? Phenotype of Parents ………………………… x ………………………… Genotype of Parents ………………………… x ………………………… Genes in gametes ………………………… x ………………………… Genotype of F1 Generation ………………………… Phenotype of F1 Generation ………………………… Genes in F1 gametes ………………………… or ………………………… (Punnett Square)...
Unit : Assignment Module Mendalian Genetics and Inheritance Use the following information to answer questions 11 and 12 Mid-Digital Hair and Freckles Finger mid-digital hair is dominant over the recessive trait of no mid-digital hair (m). Freckles are dominant over the recessive trait of no freckles (It is important to note that this example of mid-digital hair and freckles cannot be explained with simple genetics, but for the purpose of this question, assume that it can.) A woman that is...
2. In humans, the allele for freckles (F) is dominant and the allele for no freckles (1) is recessive. Assume that a homozygous recessive man and a heterozygous woman have a child. a. What is the woman's phenotype? 0.5 point b. Show the Punnett square for the cross. 1 point c. What is the child's probability of having freckles? 0.5 point
Red-green color blindness is inherited as an X-linked recessive (Xc). If a color-blind man marries a woman who is heterozygous for normal vision, what would be the expected phenotypes of their children with reference to this character? In your answer, specify in your phenotype descriptions the gender of the children. (For example, don’t just say 75% of the children would be colorblind – you would instead say 100 % of the daughters would be colorblind and 50% of the sons...
Genetics 1. A man with blood type B is the father of a child with blood type A, and the mom is blood type AB. What is the father's genotype? a. not enough information to determine the father's genotype b. AB c. Bo 2. What are the chances that a couple will have a boy with colorblindness, sex-linked recessive if the father is colorblind and the mother is homozygous dominant for normal color vision? a. 0% b. 100% c. 75%...
In humans, an allele that causes its possessor to have six fingers per hand is dominant to an allele that causes five fingers. Use F for the dominant allele and f for the recessive allele and answer the following questions. What is the genotype of someone who is heterozygous at this locus? What is the phenotype of someone who is heterozygous at this locus? What is the genotype of someone who is homozygous recessive at this locus? What is the...
A plant produces purple and white flowers. Purple is dominant to white. If we have a homozygous dominant purple flower and a homozygous recessive flower, which of the following choices are correct? O purple; PP O white; Pp O purple; pp O white; PP A heterozygous individual with brown eyes has a child with a homozygous dominant individual with brown eyes. What are the chances they have a blue-eyed baby? (You can create a Punnet square on a scratch paper...
What is the probability of two offspring in a row having mid-digital hair and freckles? Unit C: Assignment Module : Mendelian Genetics and Inheritance Use the following information to answer questions 11 and 12. Use the following into Mid-Digital Hair and Freckles Finger mid-digital hair (M) is dominant over the recessive trait of no mid-digital hair (m). Freckles are dominant over the recessive trait of no freckles . It is important to note that this example of mid-digital hair and...
Genetics and Heredity Practice Problems A. Mendelian Genetics 1. In humans, achondroplasia or "dwarfism (D) is dominant over normal (d). A homorygous dominant (DD) person dies before the age of one. A heterozygous (d) person is dwarfed. A homozygous recessive individual is normal. If a heterozygous dwarf man marries a dwarf heterozyrous woman a. What is the probability of having a normal child? b. What is the probability of having a child that is a dwarf? What is the probability...
Red-green color blindness is X-linked recessive. A woman with normal color vision has a father who is colorblind. The woman has a child with a man with normal color vision. What is the probability their child is a boy and is colorblind? A. 1/8 B. 1/4 C. 1/2 D. 3/4 E. 0
