Red-green color blindness is a sex-linked trait, with the normal vision phenotype being dominant (C) and the color blind (c) phenotype being recessive. If you are male and your father is color blind, what is the chance (expressed as a percentage) that you will inherit his trait for color blindness? What if your mother is a carrier for color blindness (but your father is not color blind), what is the chance of you being color blind? Make sure to explain your answers.
colorblindness is a sex-linked recessive trait that is the gene is located on the X chromosome, and men inherit their X chromosome from mother, for a man to be affected with sickle cell anemia he has to have mutated c allele on his X chromosome, if his father is affected he cannot pass the X chromosome with mutated allele to his Sons, he passes Y chromosome to his sons so a male whose father is affected cannot be affected with the disease so the chance that a son will inherit the colorblindness of his father is 0
XC-dominant allele and Xc-mutated allele then
mother is XCXc and the father is XCY
XCXc * XCY
XC | Xc | |
XC | XCXC (normal female) | XCXc( carrier female) |
Y | XCY (normal male) | XcY ( colorblind male) |
chance of getting a colorblind male= (number of colorblind
males/total number of male)100=(1/2)
100=50%
so chance that a male is affected if the mother a carrer=50%

A woman with red-green color-blindness has a mother with normal vision. Knowing that color-blindness is a sex-linked recessive gene, can you determine what her father's phenotype is? (yes or no) If so, what is it?The woman marries a man with normal vision. What is the probability they will have sons who are red-green color-blind? What is the probability they will have daughters who are red-green color-blind?
SEX-LINKAGE Red-Green color-blindness is sex-linked X-linked recessive trait. A normal sighted woman whose father is color- blind marries a color-blind man. they have 20 children. Of those 20, 6 are normal sighted females, 5 are color-blind females, 4 are normal sighted males and 5 are color-blind males. 7. What are the genotypes of the parents and all the children? 8. Theoretically, what would be the genotypic and phenotypic ratios of the offspring?
A human female "carrier" who is heterozygous for the recessive, sex-linked trait causing red-green color blindness, marries a normal male. What proportion of their male offspring will have red-green color blindness? Draw a punnett square.
Red-green color blindness is a human X-linked recessive disorder. The normal allele, XB, is dominant to the mutant allele, Xb. ill has normal color vision, but her father is color blind. Jill marries Tom, who also has normal color vision. Jill and Tom have a daughter who has Turner syndrome and is color blind How and from whom did the daughter inherit color blindness? O O O O O an ovum carrying X3 followed by fertilization by sperm from a...
Red-green colorblindness is a sex-linked trait. Normal color vision results from the dominant allele (A) while red-green colorblindness results from the recessive allele (a). In the cross X(A)Y x X(A)X(a): Select one: O a. All males should be red-green colorblind, all females normal o b. males have 50% chance of colorblind, all females will have normal O c. males have 50% chance of colorblind, all females will be colorblind O d. all males have normal vision, 50% of females will...
Red-green color blindness is an X-linked recessive trait. Heterozygous females have normal color vision but are carriers of the allele for red-green color blindness. Based on the information presented in the pedigree, select all of the females from the list below that are known carriers of red-green color blindness.
Suppose color blindness is a X linked trait in humans. It is also recessive. A phenotypically normal woman has a father with color blindness. This woman marries a man with normal vision. What is the chance of their children being color blind? What is the chance of their daughters being color blind?
PROCEDURE: Analysis of a pedigree The most common type of color blindness is red-green Coreessive color perception defeet. It's due to a blind allele). X-linked red-green have normal vision, but mutation on the X chromosome (i.e. a red-green color color blindness is a recessive trait. Females heterozygous are carriers of the trait. The color perception defect man inherited from both parents (homozygous recessive). Byor blind if the inenedigree c chromosome from their mothers and become red-green color chromosome has the...
Green-weakness partial color blindness, or deuteranomaly, is a sex-linked recessive trait. The green-weakness allele, g, is recessive to the allele for normal color vision, G. Another form of abnormal vision is total color blindness which is due to an autosomal gene, t, which is recessive to its counterpart allele, T, for normal vision. A man with a normal phenotype marries a woman with green-weakness partial color blindness. Both individuals are heterozygous for autosomal color blindness. What phenotypes and phenotypic frequencies...
SEX-LINKED TRAITS 8. Create a Punnett square to determine the offspring that would result from a cross between a woman with normal vision, who carries the allele for color-blindness, and a man who has normal vision. Note: color-blindness is an X-linked recessive tret What are the genotypes of the parent? List all possible genotypes of the offspring. male, normal male, color-blind female, normal vision female, carrier 50% Co hat percentage of their sons would be color-blind? What percentage of their...
