A B C D E Tammy and Peter are not deaf, but they have a daughter and a son who are deaf and a son who is not deaf. The family pedigree is shown at the top left of the figure above. You analyze an autosoaml gene known to be involved in deafness and use two PCR primers (blue arrows in the figure below the pedigree) to amplify DNA from a specific exon of the gene (in red). Many alleles of the gene are known to involve deletions in this exon. You the perform gel electrophoresis on the PCR products from each family member. The resulting gel (with negative and positive ends indicated) is at right. Based on this Which two lanes (letters) represent the parents? Which tow lanes (letters) represnt the deaf children? Which lane (letter) represents the child who can hear?
