Question

Suppose the mating had occurred between homozygous recessive male for a disease and a normal female known to be heterozygous. What would the probabilities be for the following outcomes? 3 offspring in the following order: normal, with disease, normal

Use the factorial equation

n!/x!(n-y)! * (p)x (q)n-x

n = number of events (offspring)

x = number of normal / dominant offspring

n-y =total - number of abnormal / recessive offspring

p = probability of producing a normal/dom

q = probability of producing an abnormal/rec
