b) If the parents in pedigree c have 2 other children, what is the probability that they will carry the disease?

In humans, there are four typical modes of inheritance for Mendelian diseases: autosomal
recessive, autosomal dominant, X-linked recessive, and X-linked dominant. For any pedigree, we
may or may not be able to exclude some of these possibilities. Assume that no new mutations arise
within the pedigrees-the disease-causing alleles are present from the start.
