Read each scenario, label each individual in each familly with their genotype, and answer the questions. If you are not sure whether an individual, write the allele you do know and a blank "_" next to the allele you know. For example, if you are not sure if an individual is AA or Aa, you would write A- Allele Notation Key: A = normal pigments Allele Notation Key: E = wet earwax e = dry earwax a = albino Two people with wet earwax get maried and have 4 children. When the fourth child is born, they notice that this child has dry earwax! Dry earwax is a recessive allele and more rare in European populations. There is a recessive allele that causes albinism in humans. People with albinism lack melanin pigment in their skin. The following family has many members who are albinos. albino normal pigments Dry Earwax Wet Earwax I. I. 2. II II 2 3 니 2 3 4 III L Write each individual's genotype in the blank next to each one. 3.

SUBJECT: GENETICS Topic: Probability 1. Consider albinism a trait to occur in a human family. If two parents areheterozygous for such trait, the probability of having a normally pigmented child is 3//4 and having an albino child is ¼. What is the probability that 2 will be normal and 1 will be albino?
Consider two genes. The first one is autosomal with dominant allele A and recessive allele a in the population. The second gene is on the X chromosome with dominant allele R and recessive allele r. Recall that the male Y chromosome has no gene alleles. Match the mode of inheritance (MOI) with the sentence that best describes it.

Background Information: Autosomal Dominant/Recessive- The trait is encoded by a single genetic locus with two segregating alleles: One dominant (A) and one recessive (a). The locus is not on a sex chromosome, and is not linked to any other trait unless specified.Autosomal Codominance- This mode is the same as Autosomal Dominant/Recessive, except that neither allele isdominant or recessive and heterozygous individuals have a distinct phenotype. X-linked Dominant/Recessive - The trait is encoded by a single genetic locus with two segregating alleles: One dominant (A) and one recessive (a). The locus is located on the X-chromosome, and is not linked to any other trait unless specified.X-linked Codominance- This is the same as X-linked dominant/recessive, except that heterozygous females (twocopies of the X-chromosome) experience a distinct phenotype relative to females that are homozygous for either of the two alleles. Males will be segregating with two phenotypes (because they only have…
Direction: Solve the following problems using Mendelian principles of heredity. Show your complete solution. 1. Mr. Allan Cruz has a genotype of DdEeFf, where the D and E loci are on the large chromosome and the F locus is on the small chromosome. This cell was taken from an F1 organism that resulted from the cross of two true breeding parents of the following genotypes. Parent 1: DDeeFF and Parent 2: ddEEff Among the children of Mr.Cruz’s parents, what is the chance of having the same genotype as Allan?
Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal disease that mainly affects the white population, and 1 in 20 whites are heterozygotes. Genetic testing can diagnose heterozygotes. Should a genetic screening program for cystic fibrosis be instituted? Should the federal government fund it? Should the program be voluntary or mandatory, and why?
