You have just been hired to deliver DNA test results to Maury on the Maury show. The mother and child have returned for the 3rd time to try and determine who the father of the child is. After Maury has a discussion with the mother and alleged father it is time for the results! You hand Maury the envelope with the paternity analysis results. But wait, there is a problem. The results have not been analyzed, and Maury has no idea how to read them. You quickly jump into action to interpret the results. View the results below and determine if this is the father of the child by comparing the tested allele sizes to each other. Remember that the alleles in the offspring must come from either the mother or father. The results map known genes and indicate the size of each allele from the two chromosomes of the child. If only one size is listed, then they are homozygous for that gene, if there are two then they are heterozygous.
