Question
Mr. Steve W. genetics question
Albinism is a recessive autosomal trait for skin pigmentation. Hemophilia is a sex-linked recessive disorder of the blood.
- assign alleles to the traits
A – normal skin pigmentation XH – normal blood
a – albino Xh - hemophilia
A double heterozygous woman marries a non-hemophilic man and is heterozygous for skin pigmentation.
- Double heterozygous means heterozygous for both traits. Aa for skin pigmentation and XHXh for blood traits. Therefore, the genotype of the woman is AaXHXh.
- Non-hemophilic man is XHY and heterozygous for skin pigmentation is Aa. The genotype, therefore, of the man is AaXHY.
What is the probability that they will have:
- a child with normal skin? _____________________
- a child with normal blood? _____________________
- an albino girl? _____________________
- A hemophilic boy? _____________________
