In humans, a sex-linked recessive allele, h, results in hemophilia. Its dominant counterpart, H, results in normal blood clotting. Also, the dominant allele F at an autosomal locus is responsible for freckles and the expression of its recessive counterpart fresults in the absence of freckles. A healthy female who has no freckles has a son with freckles and hemophilia and a daughter who is has no freckles and normal blood clotting. Unknown alleles should be indicated with a "?" Assume complete penetrance and no nondisjunction for this problem. What can you conclude about the genotypes of the two parents and the children? Tell the genotypes of mother, father, son and daughter.
