11). This pedigree illustrates a family in which some members have a completely penetrant disease caused by a dominant mutation. This mutation is linked at a distance of 10 map units from a SNP marker with three different alleles (1, 2 and 3). The SNP alleles found in each family member are indicated below each pedigree symbol. It is not yet evident whether the very young individuals labeled A and B will develop the disease. a. What is the probability that individual A will develop the disease? b. What is the probability that individual B will develop the disease? 1,3 2,2 1,2 1,2 A 3,2 O 3,2 B
