1 pts The pedigree below shows the expression of Huntington's disease in a family. Huntington's disease is a fatal genetic disorder that causes the progressive breakdown of nerve cells in the brain. It deteriorates a person's physical and mental abilities usually during their prime working years and has no cure. Huntington's is inherited as a dominant allele (H). Examine the pedigree below and determine the genotype for individual "2" DODO0O 2. O HH O Hh О h O either HH or Hh

Albinism is a recessive autosomal trait for skin pigmentation. Hemophilia is a sex-linked recessivedisorder of the blood. assign alleles to the traitsA – normal skin pigmentation X H – normal blooda – albino X h - hemophilia A double heterozygous woman marries a non-hemophilic man and heterozygous for skinpigmentation.  Double heterozygous means heterozygous for both traits. Aa for skin pigmentation andX H X h for blood trait. Therefore, the genotype of the woman is AaX H X h .  Non-hemophilic man is X H Y and heterozygous for skin pigmentation is Aa. The genotype,therefore, of the man is AaX H Y. What is the probability that they will have:a. a child with normal skin? _____________________b. a child with normal blood? _____________________c. an albino girl? _____________________d. A hemophilic boy? _____________________

9. Make a pedigree for each of the following situations. For each individual, write the individual's genotype (when possible) next to the individual's symbol (e.g. O xty, I Gg): a. Two parents do not have cystic fibrosis and they have a daughter with cystic fibrosis and a son who does not have cystic fibrosis. The daughter grows up and she mates with a male who does not have cystic fibrosis. Their only child is a boy and he has cystic fibrosis. b. A man with hemophilia mates with a female without hemophilia. They have one son and one daughter. The daughter has hemophilia and the son does not have hemophilia. The son grows up, and he marries and mates with a female. Their only child is a boy, and he has hemophilia.
