In a cross between Aa Bb XCDXCD and Aa Bb XCDY, the A gene controls earwax- where wet earwax is dominant to dry earwax. The B gene controls the ability to taste the bitter compound PTC. Tasting is dominant to non-tasting. A and B are found on different autosomal chromosomes. The C gene controls color vision- color vision is dominant to color blindness. And the D gene controls production of dystrophin, the gene disrupted in Duchene's Muscular Dystrophy. Individuals who have two copies of the recessive d allele or are hemizygous for the recessive d allele have muscular dystrophy. The parents have a child. What is the probability that child has wet earwax, can taste PTC, can see color, and has DMD? When the parents have 5 children. What is the probability that 4 of them are tasters, 1 of them is a non-taster, and all of them have wet earwax?
