Using individuals 3, 4 and 7, explain why it can be concluded that
Tay-Sachs disease is controlled by a recessive allele.
Individuals 1 and 2 can produce children with three possible
genotypes.
List ALL the genotypes that have a 25% chance of being produced.
In humans, haemophilia is caused by a recessive allele on the
X-chromosome (X").
A woman, who is heterozygous for haemophilia, marries a man with
haemophilia.
