Draw an invented pedigree in which a couple has three children. The eldest two children, a daughter (Wilma) and son (Fred) both have Huntington’s Disease (HD - a genetic disorder where nerve cells in the brain progressively breakdown affecting physical and mental abilities and is fatal and individuals show signs during their 20-40’s) like their father. HD is NOT a sex-linked gene. The couple’s youngest daughter (Betty) does not have HD. Fred marries a woman with no HD. They have...

A couple (both of which are normal) has a son that has Duchenne muscular dystrophy. This is a rare sex-linked recessive disorder which causes muscle deterioration that almost always affects boys. The parents believe that the hospital mixed their child up with a normal child and sue the hospital. You have once again been called as an expert in genetics to testify. What do you tell the jury? Is it possible that these are the biological parents or did the...

A man with hemophilia (a recessive, sex-linked condition) and a woman that carries the hemophilia allele have a daughter with normal phenotype. Define allele symbols for the hemophilia and normal alleles. Draw a pedigree and indicate the genotype of each individual in the pedigree. The daughter marries a man who is normal for the trait. What is the probability that a daughter of this pair will be a hemophiliac? What is the probability that a son will be a hemophiliac?...

Polydactyly is expressed when an individual has extra fingers and/or toes. Assume that a man with six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot marries a woman with a normal number of digits. Having extra digits is caused by a dominant allele. The couple has a son with normal hands and feet, but the couple's second child has extra digits. What is the probability that their third child will have polydactyly?

assignment baldness In man, a gender-influenced character is determined by two alleles in an autosomal locus. Allel B for baldness is dominant in men, but recessive in women. The alternative allele b is recessive in men, but dominant in women. In a large population (A) it turned out that 1% of the women were bald. Answer the following questions assuming that the population is in Hardy-Weinberg's balance with regard to the genetic system considered. a) Calculate the expected frequency of...
