8.7 Red-Green Color Blindness Problem: Red-Green color blindness is due to the inheritance of an X-linked recessive allele. James and Susan have normal color vision, but Susan's father was colorblind (her mother was not). A pedigree chart of their family is provided below. Where squares = males, and circles = females. Open shapes indicate the individual did not inherit the condition, shaded shapes indicate affected indivicuals. Half-shaded shapes indicate an unaffected individual with one recessive allele (a carrier). James Susan Jimmy Stanley Sidney Jamie Created by Paint X Post: Answer the following questions. What are the genotypes of James and Susan? James and Susan raise 4 children; What are the genotypes and phenotypes (normal vision, or RG colorblind) for each child. Finally, what can you deduce about the parents of the children from this information?
