Question

Please help I am a bit confused I have attached two images they both are part of the same question 

The HPC1 gene has been implicated in early-onset prostate cancer. Displayed below is a pedigree of a family showing the incidence of prostate cancer
with a particular HPC1 allele. HPC1+/HPC1- males have a high chance of developing early-onset prostate cancer.
