Make a pedigree chart and analysis based on the situation

 

Character: Blood Type
• Blood type is determined by the presence of several different proteins found on
the surface of red blood cells. Blood type A has the A antigens on the surface
of red blood cells. Blood type B has the B antigens on the surface of red blood
cells. Blood type AB has both A and B antigens. Blood type O has neither.
Situation:
Guinevere decides to trace the inheritance of her blood type through her family, all
the way back to her great-grandmother Natalia. Guinevere's great-grandmother
Natalia, has type A blood. Natalia and her husband Claude have five children-three
sons, Miguel (who has blood type A), Mark (who has blood type B) and David (who
has type AB blood); a daughter (Jane) with type O blood and another daughter
(Janella) with type A blood. Jane marries a man and they have two sons (Marco and
Polo) who both are blood type A and a daughter (Mara) who has blood type B;
Janella on the other hand marries a man and together have three sons (one with
blood type A, one with AB, and one with O). Miguel marries a woman with type O
blood and together they have three children (daughter Frances and son Albert who
both have type A blood, and a son Mike with type O blood). Mike marries Johann
and together they have one daughter, Guinevere. Guinevere knows that her parents
both have the same blood type, but she has never yet had a blood test to determine
her own blood type.

Pedigree Chart Analysis
Note: Answers in items 6-8 must be expressed in fraction form.
Make a pedigree chart
1. How many generations are there?
2. How many males are there?
3. How many females are there?
4. How many individuals have the trait?
5. How many females have the trait?
6. What is the chance of having that trait
if II-5 marries a man who is heterozygous
for blood type A?
7. What is the chance of having that trait
if II-2, marries a woman who has the same blood type as
his?
8. Make a Punnett square that shows the cross of the individuals 1 and 2
from Generation I. Identify the genotypic and phenotypic ratios. Use
the squares below. Blue-father; Purple-mother
