(a)
To explain:
Analysis of pedigrees to determine the probability of someone inheriting a trait.
Introduction:
Transmission genetics is the transfer of the genetic information from one generation to another leading to the generation of progeny. Molecular genetics is the study of the function, mechanism and structure of the genes inside the cell. Population genetics is the study of the variations in genes in different populations. It includes the study of the genetic composition and traits of an organism.

To explain:
Study of people in a small island to determine why a genetic form of asthma is prevalent on the island.

- Linkage in common bean Alleles at the P locus control seed color. Plants which are pp have white seeds, white flowers and no pigment in vegetative parts. Plants which are P_ have black seeds, purple flowers and may have varying degrees of pigment on stems and leaves. Seed color can be assessed, visually, based on if the seed is white or not white A gene for mold resistance has been reported and we want to determine its inheritance and whether it is linked to P. For the purposes of this exercise, we will assume that resistance is controlled by a single locus M, and M_ plants are resistant and mm plants are susceptible. Resistance can be measured, under greenhouse conditions, 2 weeks after planting, by injecting each seedling with a spore suspension. After two weeks, the seedlings can be rated as resistant or susceptible, based on whether or not tissue is actively sporulating. For this exercise we will use seed and data from the F10 generation of a recombinant inbred population…arrow_forwardAlleles at the P locus control seed color.
