A mother with blood type “A” and a father with blood type “B” have a child together. Both parents have heterozygous genotypes for their respective blood types. Can these parents have a child with "O" blood type? (highlight YES or NO before you work out the Punnett Square). Illustrate your answer with this Punnett Square. Remember that the “A” allele and the "B" allele are both dominant and the "O" allele is recessive (there is no lower-case "a" or lower-case "b"). What is the % chance of the offspring having "A" type blood? What is the % chance of the offspring having "B" type blood? What is the % chance of the offspring having "AB" type blood (codominant? What is the % chance of the offspring having "O" type blood?

A pedigree analysis was performed on the family of a man with schizophrenia. Based on the known concordance statistics, would his MZ twin be at high risk for the disease? Would the twins risk decrease if he were raised in an environment different from that of his schizophrenic brother?
As it turned out, one of the tallest Potsdam Guards had an unquenchable attraction to short women. During his tenure as guard, he had numerous clandestine affairs. In each case, children resulted. Subsequently, some of the childrenwho had no way of knowing that they were relatedmarried and had children of their own. Assume that two pairs of genes determine height. The genotype of the 7-foot-tall Potsdam Guard was A9A9B9B9, and the genotype of all of his 5-foot clandestine lovers was AABB. An A9 or B9 allele in the offspring each adds 6 inches to the base height of 5 feet conferred by the AABB genotype. a. What were the genotypes and phenotypes of all the F1 children? b. Diagram the cross between the F1 offspring, and give all possible genotypes and phenotypes of the F2 progeny
Given the karyotype shown at right, is this a male or a female? Normal or abnormal? What would the phenotype of this individual be?
Sickle cell anemia is an inherited red blood cell disorder in which there are not enough healthy red blood cells to carry oxygen throughout the body. The allele that causes sickle-cell anemia is autosomal recessive (s), and the dominant allele can be represented by S. How many offspring will be affected by the disorder if the mother is a carrier, and the father appears to be normal? (Include the gender) a. b. How many will become carriers? (include the gender) A- 三三三四四 II !!
Classical hemophilia is a sex-linked disease caused by a recessive gene on the X chromosome. (Hemophilia refers to diseases that cause delays in blood clotting.) If a woman who is acarrierof classical hemophilia has children with a normal male, give the ratios of the possible offspring with respect to classical hemophilia. Be sure to state both the genotypes and the phenotypes of each offspring. For genotypes, use X for a normal X chromosome, Xh for an X chromosome with the hemophilia gene, and Y for a normal Y chromosome. For phenotypes, if the offspring is female, be sure to state if homozygous normal, a carrier, or has the disease. If the offspring is a male, be sure to state if normal or has the disease.
Two people are planning to have children together. Each person is heterozygous for the gene “A”. Using this letter, first list all the possible gametes that the two people can produce. Next, write all the possible genotypes and phenotypes for their offspring, using the correct genetic terminology (e.g., “genotype is homozygous dominant” “phenotype is dominant”). HINT: Use the gametes to construct a Punnett square and predict the possible offspring (you do not need to include the Punnett square in your answer).
The blood serum from one individual (let’s call this person individual 1) is known to agglutinate the red blood cells from a secondindividual (individual 2). List the pairwise combinations of possible genotypes that individuals 1 and 2 could have. If individual 1is the parent of individual 2, what are his or her possiblegenotypes?
In addition to the allelic pair determining pattern baldness in man (B,b), consider early baldness to be due to another autosomal allele (E) on a different pair of chromosomes and also dominant in males but recessive in females. The phenotype for ee may be late or nonbaldness depending on sex and the genotype for B, b alleles. Two doubly heterozygous persons marry. What is the phenotype of the male parent? What is the phenotype of the female parent? Give the phenotypic ratio expected among male children of couples such as this one. Show corresponding genotypes for each phenotype mentioned in your phenotypic ratio. Give the phenotypic ratio expected among female children of couples such as this one. Show corresponding genotypes for each phenotype mentioned in your phenotypic ratio.
The allele for albinism ( c ) is recessive to the allele for normal pigmentation ( C ). A normally pigmented woman whose father is an albino marries an albino man whose parents are normal. They have three children, two normal and one albino. Give the genotypes for EACH person listed.
A light-haired man has blood type O, his wife has dark hair and blood type AB, but her father had light hair. Assume dark hair (H) is dominant to light (h). What is the probability they will have a child with dark hair and blood type A? What is the probability they will have a child with light hair and blood type B? What is the total number of phenotypes their children could show?
Assume that blood type is inherited as A and B dominant over O, but A and B are codominantover each other. Genotypes (IA IA) and (IA i) are then phenotypically type A, genotypes (IB IB) and(IB i) are type B, genotype (IA IB) is type AB, and genotype (i i) is type O blood. A man with bloodtype IA IA marries a woman with type AB blood. What are the genotypic and phenotypic ratios ofthe children?
