Transcribed Image Text:Complete the following queatione BEFORE ATTEMPTING THE HW 1 BLACKBOARD ASSIGNMENT,
In the following human pedigrees, the filled symbols represnent the affected individuals who suffer from
the disease. Use A/a to represent alleles for autosomal traits and XIX/Ytorepresent alleles for
X-linked traits. Use the uppercase letter to represent the dominant allele and the lowercase letterto
represent the receasive allele.
