A couple is planning on having three children. You may assume that one child is born at a time (no twins or triplets), that each child was born two years apart from one another, and that it is equally likely for the couple to have a boy or a girl. Construct a tree diagram and show the sample space. a) What is the probability that the oldest child is a girl and the two younger children are boys? b) What...

3. About one child in 2500 is born with phenylketonuria (an inability to metabolize the amino acid phenylalanine). This is known to be a recessive autosomal trait. a. If the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium for this trait, what is the frequency of the phenylketonuria allele? b. What proportion of the population are carriers of the phenylketonuria allele (that is what proportion are heterozygous)?

You are the parent of a child who was born a hermaphrodite (a child that has the sexual organs of both a male and a female). The doctor mentions that surgery is possible to make the child anatomically male or female. Would you decide to have the surgery and assign the child as male or female, or decide to keep the child a hermaphrodite? Explain your answer

Parents have always wondered about the sex of a child before it is born. Suppose that the probability of having a male child was 0.5, and that the sex of one child is independent of the sex of other children. What is the probability of having no more than 1 boy out of 7 children? Round your answer to four decimal places.
