- How can there be more than one possible genotype for an observed phenotype?arrow_forward1. A) Apply the concept of sex linkage to explain why color blindness is more prevalent in men than in women. B) Mary is concerned that she may be a carrier for hemophilia, a sex-linked condition located on the X chromosome. Mary is married to John, who doesn't have hemophilia. Assuming Mary is a carrier, what are the genotype ratios expected for Mary and John's kids (specify for boys and for girls)? C) Mary and John have 2 boys, none of them has hemophilia. Can we use this fact as proof that Mary does not carry the allele for hemophilia? Explain your argument.arrow_forwardDescribe the following (50 words minimum per concept): chromosomes, genes, alleles and traits and explain how they are related.arrow_forward
