Wilma and Wally have one male child who has been diagnosed withDuchenne muscular dystrophy, an X-linked condition that results insevere atrophy of skeletal muscle. Neither parent has this condition.What is the probability that their next child will have Duchenne musculardystrophy?
Hemophilia A, a condition in which blood does not clot properly, is a recessive trait located on the X chromosome (Xh). A woman heterozygous for the trait marries a normal male. What is the probability that this couple will have hemophiliac daughters? What is the probability that this couple will have hemophiliac sons?
Marfan syndrome (Section 13.5) is inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern. What is the chance that a child will inherit the associated allele if one parent does not carry it and the other is heterozygous?
Hemophilia is a sex-linked recessive trait in humans. If a father and a son are both hemophiliacs, but the mother is normal, her genotype must be: XhXh XHXh XHXH XhY
A boy with Klinefelter syndrome (47,XXY) is born to a motherwho is phenotypically normal and a father who has the X-linkedskin condition called anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia. The mother’sskin is completely normal with no signs of the skin abnormality.In contrast, her son has patches of normal skin and patchesof abnormal skin. Question: Which parent contributed the abnormal gamete?
In 1952, an article in the British Medical Journalreported interesting differences in the behavior ofblood plasma obtained from several people who suffered from X-linked recessive hemophilia. Whenmixed together, the cell-free blood plasma from certain combinations of individuals could form clots inthe test tube. For example, the following table showswhether clots could form (+) or not (−) in variouscombinations of plasma from four people withhemophilia:1 and 1 − 2 and 3 +1 and 2 − 2 and 4 +1 and 3 + 3 and 3 −1 and 4 + 3 and 4 −2 and 2 − 4 and 4 −What do these data tell you about the inheritance ofhemophilia in these individuals? Do these data allowyou to exclude any models for the biochemical pathway governing blood clotting?
Hemophilia results from a sex-linked gene. The disease is most common in males, but the hemophilia allele is on the X chromosome. Explain this apparent anomaly.
Hemophilia is another example of a X-linked disease caused when a recessive allele (Xh) is expressed. If a normal male reproduces with a heterozygous normal female, what are the expected genotypes and phenotypes? Will any of their daughters develop hemophilia? As in the previous question, you must also give the gender of the child in your genotype and phenotype descriptions here.
X-linked ichthyosis is an X-linked recessive trait that manifests in part as dry, scaly skin (“ichthy-” = fish or fish like). Suppose a couple are considering having a child together. Parent A is heterozygous for the ichthyosis allele while Parent B is hemizygous negative for the ichthyosis allele. What is the probability their child would be unafflicted with ichthyosis but be a carrier of the ichthyosis-causing allele? a.0% b.25% c.50% d.75% e.100%
An individual with 46, XX genotype is diagnosed with Duchenne-type Muscular Dystrophy, a recessive X-linked disorder. Genetic tests confirm that this individual is a heterozygote for this disorder. Briefly, but specifically, explain how it’s possible that they are showing symptoms of this disorder.
Sickle cell anemia is inherited as an autosomal recessive condition. It also exhibits incomplete dominance in that the heterozygous genotype displays a mild form of the disease known as sickle cell trait while individuals with the homozygous recessive genotype have a severe form of SCA. A man who has severe sickle cell anemia marries a woman who suffers from a mild trait. What is the probabilitu they will have a child with severe SCA?What is the probability they will have a child with mild SCA? What is the probability they will have a normal child?

Hemophilia, disease in which the blood lacks a clotting factor, is caused by an X linked recessive gene. Joe doe not have hemophilia and Lucille is heterozygous for the condition. What is the chance that their MALE child will have hemophilia? (Note: you are calculating the probability for their MALE children only, in other words if they have 1 male child, what is the probability that he will be born with the disease?) 0% 1/4 or 25% 2/4 or 50% 3/4 or 75% 4/4 or 100%
