The autosomal (not X-linked) gene for brachydactyly, short fingers, is dominant to normal finger length. Assume that a female with brachydactyly in the heterozygous condition is married to a man with normal fingers. What is the probability that their first child will be a brachydactylous girl? ¼ 1/2 1/8 3/4 2/3
1. A) Apply the concept of sex linkage to explain why color blindness is more prevalent in men than in women. B) Mary is concerned that she may be a carrier for hemophilia, a sex-linked condition located on the X chromosome. Mary is married to John, who doesn't have hemophilia. Assuming Mary is a carrier, what are the genotype ratios expected for Mary and John's kids (specify for boys and for girls)? C) Mary and John have 2 boys, none of them has hemophilia. Can we use this fact as proof that Mary does not carry the allele for hemophilia? Explain your argument.
Neurofibromatosis-1 (NF1) is an autosomal dominant disorder where tumours form in the base layer of the skin or in nerve tissues. What is the probability that individuals II-1 and II-2 will have a genetic son with NF1? Find the image attached.
Which of the following genotype(s) must a female child have in order to be color blind? XNXN XNXn XnXn XNY XnY (XN represents the normal color vision allele. Xn represents the color-blindness allele. Y represents the Y chromosome, which does not carry the color-vision gene.) Which of the following genotype(s) must a color-blind male have? Explain your rationale. XNXN XNXn XnXn XNY XnY (XN represents the normal color vision allele. Xn represents the color-blindness allele. Y represents the Y chromosome, which does not carry the color-vision gene.)
Clara has polydactyly, an autosomal dominant that is 80% penetrant. Clara inherited her polydactyly from her mother, her father had no polydactyly in his family. She has an extra toe on her left foot. Her husband Ralph has no polydactyly in his family. A) What is the chance that Clara will have a child that will inherit polydactyly? B) What is the chance that the child will express polydactyly. You can leave these as un-calculated equations.
A woman is homozygous dominant for short fingers. She marries a man who is heterozygous for short fingers. What will the punnet square look like
Charles has achondroplasia dwarfism (autosomal dominant) but his wife is normal. What is the likelihood that they will have a child with achondroplasia dwarfism? What is the likelihood that they will have embryos that will die from achondroplasia dwarfism? Please explain.
Sickle cell anemia is inherited as an autosomal recessive condition. It also exhibits incomplete dominance in that the heterozygous genotype displays a mild form of the disease known as sickle cell trait while individuals with the homozygous recessive genotype have a severe form of SCA. A man who has severe sickle cell anemia marries a woman who suffers from a mild trait. What is the probabilitu they will have a child with severe SCA?What is the probability they will have a child with mild SCA? What is the probability they will have a normal child? Show ALL work using punnett squares.
A 43-year-old (gravida 2, para 2) pregnant woman requests chorionic villus sampling (CVS) and a karyotype of her fetus because of concerns about Down syndrome. Chorionic villus cells reveal the following karyotype: 2 3 7 8 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 %3D 19 20 21 22 X X Y With this karyotype from CVS, discussion of the results with a genetic counselor would include which one of the following? a. Normal child b. Male with mild to moderate learning problems and infertility c. Female with mild to moderate learning problems and delayed puberty d. Generally normal male, however some degree of short stature and precocious puberty e. Generally normal female, however some degree of short stature and infertility

A male with autosomal dominant brown hair and a female with unknown hair color have 3 sons with recessive blonde hair. What is the male’s genotype? What are the possible genotype(s) and phenotype(s) [hair color] of the female?
Analyze the karyotype shown. Indicate if it is a chromosomal male or achromosomal female. If the karyotype is normal, write the word normal under name or description. If the karyotype is abnormal, name or describethe disorder.
