Muffy, a color blind female with blood type A (heterozygous) is married to Biff, who is also color blind and is homozygous for type B blood. Muffy has been having an affair with their gardener, Raoul, who is heterozygous for type B blood and has normal vision. Recall that color blindness is a sex linked recessive condition. Please help Biff’s attorney determine the father of each of the children for the divorce proceedings:a) Female, type A blood, normal visionb) Male, type O blood, color blindc) Female, type AB blood, color blind

Answer #1

Answer:

a) Female, type A blood, normal vision-----Raoul

b) Male, type O blood, color blind----Raoul

c) Female, type AB blood, color blind---Biff

Explanation:

Answer:

Muffy = XcXc ; IAi

Biff = XcY ; IBIB

Raoul = XCY ; IBi

Myffy (XcXc; IAi) x Biff (XcY ; IBIB)----Parents

Xc IB

XcXc ; IAIB (colorblind, AB blood female)

XcY ; IAIB (colorblind, AB blood male)

Xc i

XcXc ; IAi (colorblind, A blood female)

XcY ; IBi (colorblind, B blood male)

Myffy (XcXc; IAi) x Roul (XCY ; IBi)----Parents
