Question
Chapter 2, Problem 65P
a.
Summary Introduction
To determine: The condition of inheritance in the given diagram.
Introduction: Genetic abnormalities are those that occupy the chromosomal location and produce the non-functional proteins. The abnormalities can be caused due either to mutation in a single
b.
Summary Introduction
To determine: The probability of the first child to be diseased when person 1 and person 2 in the given pedigree get married.
Introduction: The gene transferred from parents may be dominant as well as the recessive. The expression of the genes or alleles determines the type of abnormalities in the progenies, which may be of four types, autosomal dominant and autosomal recessive, X-linked dominant and X-linked recessive.

Assume that one of Merida's sons, who is heterozygous for orange hair color, married a girl that was
also heterozygous. Create a Punnett square to show the possibilities that would result if they had
children.
a. List the possible genotypes and phenotypes for
their children.
b. What are the chances of a child with orange hair?
c. What are the chantes of a child with yellow?
Please answer both questions in detail. Correct answers are highlighted.
a. The pedigree follows the inheritance of a relatively common trait. Is the trait most likely autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, X-linked dominant, or X-linked recessive? Explain your reasoning.
b. If the couple marked with a “*” had another child, what is the probability that it would be an affected daughter? (Note: this is a compound outcome.)

- Situation: Guinevere decides to trace the inheritance of her blood type through her family, all the way back to her great-grandmother Natalia. Guinevere's great-grandmother Natalia, has type A blood. Natalia and her husband Claude have five children-three sons, Miguel (who has blood type A), Mark (who has blood type B) and David (who has type AB blood); a daughter (Jane) with type O blood and another daughter (Janella) with type A blood. Jane marries a man and they have two sons (Marco and Polo) who both are blood type A and a daughter (Mara) who has blood type B; Janella on the other hand marries a man and together have three sons (one with blood type A, one with AB, and one with O). Miguel marries a woman with type O blood and together they have three children (daughter Frances and son Albert who both have type A blood, and a son Mike with type O blood). Mike marries Johann and together they have one daughter, Guinevere. Guinevere knows that her parents both have the same blood type,…arrow_forwardc) What blood types could be observed in children born to a woman who has blood type A and a man who has blood type AB?

- Refer to the pedigree below which shows inheritance for achondroplasia (dwarfism), a dominantly inherited trait (denoted as D), which are the darkened circles and squares. Dwarfism (darkened shapes) are dominantly inherited, while normal height is recessively inherited (hh). Based on the pedigree, what is the correct genotype for individual #II-6?

Based on the pedigree, is the disease dominant or recessive and is it sex-linked or autosomal? Why? Furthermore, what is the probability that 18 on this chart is affected but the condition, and what is the probability that 18 is a carrier? Why? Are the probability of being a carrier and an affected individual different? Why?arrow_forwardDuchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is an example of an X-linked trait. This is a neuromuscular disease that causes muscles to slowly dehydrate, leading to paralysis. The disease allele is recessive (Xd) and the normal allele is dominant (XD). A female that is a carrier for DMD has kids with a normal male. Complete this cross on scratch paper and then answer the questions. A.
