Answer #1

True, it is a recessive trait because female is affected so she must be homozygous recessive. And it skips generations. In the 4th generation two individuals are affected that means their parents must have been carriers. So if two of the parents are heterozygous carriers the 50% chance offsprings are affected
So out of four ,two are affected.
