Suppose that a female who is colorblind mates with a male who is not For (a) and (b), make sure to define the alleles.
What is the genotype of the female?
What is the genotype of the male?
What is the probability that a male child produced from this union is colorblind?
What is the probability that a female child produced from this union is colorblind? Please show punnet square also
Table 2 below shows the banding pattern for a cross between parents P1 and P2 producing the 6 progeny I1-6. The parents are double heterozygotes for two independently assorting genes.
Identify the pairs of bands that correspond to the two segregating pairs of alleles.
Assuming independent assortment, what is the probability that an offspring shows the pattern observed in I5.
