Binomial expansion problem: The disease cystic fibrosis is a recessive disease governed by a single gene. Only individual's homozygous recessive is affected, whereas heterozygous individuals are unaffected carriers. The disease causes difficulty breathing due to the buildup of mucous in the lungs. Suppose two heterozygous parents have five offspring. What is the probability that two of the five offspring will be affected with the disease? To solve this problem if will be helpful to first create a Punnett Square depicting the possible genotypes of the offspring. Remember Mendel's Law of Segregation when constructing the Square and that both parents are heterozygous carriers of the cystic fibrosis allele. For Educational Purposes Oniy SLSU-TO/NCMatondo PUNNETT SQUARE What would be the probability that the couple's first child is affected and the next four children are unaffected? Would you use the product rule or the binomial expansion formula to determine this?
