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 would be colorblind. Note that this is not a correct answer; it is just to give you an idea of how to explain the correct phenotypes of the cross.)
If a color-blind man (Xc) marries a woman who is heterozygous (Xc+Xc) for normal vision, 50% daughters and sons would be colorblind, 50% daughters would be carriers of the colorblind and 50% sons would be 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?
Suppose color blindness is a X linked trait in humans. It is also recessive. A phenotypically normal woman has a father with color blindness. This woman marries a man with normal vision. What is the chance of their children being color blind? What is the chance of their daughters being color blind?
3. Colour-blindness is a X-linked, recessive trait. If a normal-sighted woman, whose father was colour-blind, marries a colour-blind man, what is the probability that they will have a son who is colour-blind? (use the letter "B") 4. A man and woman, both of normal vision, have: 1) a colour-blind son (#1) who has a daughter of normal vision 2) a daughter (#1) of normal vision who has one colour-blind son and one normal vision son 3) another daughter (W2) of...
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 due to an X-linked recessive allele in humans. A widow's peak (a hairline that comes to a peak in the middle of the forehead) is due to an autosomal dominant allele. Consider the following family history: A man with a widow's peak and normal color vision marries a color-blind woman with a straight hairline. The man's father had a straight hairline, as did both of the woman's parents. Use the family history to make predictions about...
THIS ASSIGNMENT IS DUE IN YOUR LAB SECTION 1. A color-blind man marries a woman with normal color vision. The woman's father was also color-blind. a.) What is the chance that their first child will be a colorblind son? A colorblind daughter? b.) If they have four children, what is the chance that two will be colorblind sons? 2、 The Brown's are both carriers of the recessive allele that causes the metabolic disorder called phenylketonuria. The gene responsible for the...
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
A color-blind woman marries a man who is not color-blind and they have six children ( 3 boys and 3 girls) All of the sons and none of the daughters are color blind. a. What does this tell you about the color blind allele? b. Draw the pedigree of this family, using correct symbols and all of the genotypes you can determine with certainty. c. One of the daughters marries a man who can see color. State the phenotypic and...
SEX-LINKED TRAITS 8. Create a Punnett square to determine the offspring that would result from a cross between a woman with normal vision, who carries the allele for color-blindness, and a man who has normal vision. Note: color-blindness is an X-linked recessive tret What are the genotypes of the parent? List all possible genotypes of the offspring. male, normal male, color-blind female, normal vision female, carrier 50% Co hat percentage of their sons would be color-blind? What percentage of their...
