Question
Congenital hypertrichosis (CH) is a very rare X-linked
dominant inherited condition. CH is characterized by the
growth of dark hair over the body.
CH is so rare, only 50 cases have been identified since
the Middle Ages. The incidence of this condition is
considerably higher in a small Mexican village (from
which the partial pedigree below is derived) than the rest
of the human population.

1. Using appropriate nomenclature, identify the
genotypes for the following 2 individuals:
12 13
your response must include an appropriate
legend/key to identify allele symbols.
2. Show how a Punnett square (using the allele
symbols from the previous question) is used
to determine the probability in percent of
individuals III-11 and III-12 next offspring has CH?
