There are two traits not shown in the pedigree: albinism (autosomal recessive) and Marfan syndrome (autosomal dominant). Along with the trait Cai inherited shown in the pedigree, he is also a carrier for albinism, but does not have Marfan syndrome. Seema is also a carrier for albinism and has Marfan syndrome, which she inherited from her father (her mother did not have Marfan). What is the probability their child will be affected by either the trait in the pedigree, OR by albinism and Marfan syndrome? NOTE: Consider all three traits while solving this problem!

Question 11/18 > NEXT A BOOKMARK Students collected the seeds from a red flower and planted them. After a few months, the plants bloomed. Students saw that not all of the flowers were the same color. They collected and recorded data about the flowers. They also sketched 11 one of the flowers. The students plan to harvest seeds from these flowers and plant them to see what color flowers will be produced. Number of Plants Petal Color Drawing of Flower 6 Red White A There will be more red flowers than white flowers, because the red color is dominant over white. There will be more white flowers than red flowers, because the white color is dominant over red. There will be fewer white flowers than red flowers, because the white flower color is a dominant trait. D There will be fewer red flowers than white flowers, because the red flower color is a recessive trait.

Can you help me on this two problems
ASAP, I will like your answer if it follows the instruction. Thank you!
I need help with the following question I dont understand a) and b)!!!!! Dr. Sharon Martin and her company have spent years working to identify how the gene for albinism works. The mutation in this gene causes no pigment to be produced in the hair, skin or eyes. Identifying the gene would open the door to curing the condition. Finally, her team succeeds. But, the years of research have been expensive. One way to make back the money is to patent the gene that the team members have identified. Then, anyone who wanted to develop either treatments or tests would have to pay a fee to use the gene. a) Do you think the government should allow this gene to be patented? Explain. b) If Dr. Martin’s company develops a test for this gene, should they be allowed to patent the test? Explain.
