DAmy Urown Sclence Queen Victoria was the world's most famous carrier of hemophilia. Her son, Leopold, and two carrier daughters, Alice and Beatrice, spread the allele fairly widely through the royal families of Europe, Prussia and Russia. Fortunately, no modern monarchs have inherited the allele. Indicate the probable genotype of each of the people below. Remember, hemophilia is a sex-linked trait and shaded individuals have the disease. Albert Victorla Alice Leopold Beatrice Edward George V George VI Waldamar and Alexis Alfonso and Gonzala Heinreich

Instead the laws of probability may be used. The product law of probabilities says that when alleles for separate genes segregate independently, we can figure out the probability of a particular combined genotype by multiplying the probability of the alleles for each gene. 13.

He knew that if alleles segregated randomly when forming gametes, mathematical probability should predict the outcome of the F2 generation. His true-breeding parent plants were homozygous, RR or rr. This cross resulted in an F1 generation of heterozygous plants, Rr. 1. What phenotypes would you predict in the F2 generation? Type your answer here. < 1 of 7 AA A savvasrealize.com
The XG locus on the human X chromosome has twoalleles, XG+ and XG. The XG+ allele causes the presence of the Xg surface antigen on red blood cells,while the recessive XG allele does not allow antigento appear. The XG locus is 10 m.u. from the STSlocus. The STS+ allele produces normal activity ofthe enzyme steroid sulfatase, while the recessive STSallele results in the lack of steroid sulfatase activityand the disease ichthyosis (scaly skin). A man withichthyosis and no Xg antigen has a normal daughterwith Xg antigen. This daughter is expecting a child.a. If the child is a son, what is the probability he willlack Xg antigen and have ichthyosis?b. What is the probability that a son would have boththe antigen and ichthyosis?c. If the child is a son with ichthyosis, what is theprobability he will have Xg antigen?
