Refer to the pedigree below for this question. Individuals who are shaded have a rare autosomal recessive disorder. Those who are not shaded have the dominant phenotype. Let "A' and a represent the dominant and recessive alleles, respectively. Fill in the probability functions below to indicate the genotype or probability function for the genotype af each individual. Give all probabilities as fractions that are simplified to the lowest value. Type your fractions in ## format without spaces. For example, one-half should be typed as 1/2. Place a zero in each space that does not have a number. Individual 13 is genotype 0 AA + 1 Aa + 0 aa Individual I-4 is genotype 1/3 AA + 2/3 Aa + 0 aa Individual -1 is genotype AA + Aa + aa Individual Il-1 is genotype AA + Aa + aa Individual II-7 is genotype AA + Aa + aa Individual Il-1 is AA + aa Individual lII-5 is genotype AA + Aa + aa Individual IV-3 is genotype AA + Aa + aa For the next question, give the probability as a fraction that is simplified to the lowest value. Type your fraction in the format #/# with no spaces. What is the probability that individual IV-1 will be a female who does not have the disorder? (Remember that we do not know the gender or phenotype of individuals who are represented by a diamond)

Inheritance and Mendelian Genetics

Inheritance means the passing of traits to offspring from parents. These traits could be passed either through asexual reproduction or sexual reproduction. The offspring receives the genetic material from the parents. Mendelian inheritance is a certain biological inheritance that follows the rules and principles laid down by Gregor Mendel in 1865. The initial hypothesis was considered wrong, but other inheritance theories modified the concept of inheritance and thus genetics.
