If both husband and wife are known to be heterozygous for the autosomal recessive condition of albinism, what is the probability that among their four children, three will be normal and one will have albinism?
I know that each child has a 3/4 probability of being normal and 1/4 probability of having albinism. So is the answer 3/4 * 3/4 * 3/4 * 1/4? Or do you just do 3/4 * 3/4 * 3/4?

Albinism is an autosomal recessive condition characterized by absence of melanin pigment from the skin, eye and hair. Two heterozygote carriers of albinism marry and plan a family of five. What is the probability that 4 children will be normal and one will be albino? What is the probability that at least 3 children will be normal? I know the answers are 0.396 & 0.896... please show the math and explain why

albinism is caused by a recessive
QUESTION 6 Albinism (lack of skin and hair pigmentation) is caused by a recessive autosomal allele. A woman and man both normally pigmented, have an albino child together. For this trait, what is the genotype of the albino child? O A. It is unknown, because not enough information is provided. O B. heterozygous O C. homozygous dominant OD.homozygous recessive O E. It depends on the environment that the child lives in. QUESTION 7 in...

Suppose that you are studying is a rare recessive condition in humans whereby affected individuals are unable to metabolize a sugar found in certain foods. A woman and her husband are both heterozygous for the allele causing the condition. A) If the woman is pregnant with twins and the twins are dizygotic (non-identical), what is the probability that both twins will be girls and be affected?

1. Nystagmus, a condition causing oscillations in eye movement, is inherited with the dominant allele N on the X chromosome. The X-linked recessive allele n does not cause Nystagmus. An immunodeficiency disorder called Chronic Granulomatous Disease (CGD) is inherited with the autosomal recessive allele g. Individuals with the autosomal dominant allele G do not have Chronic Granulomatous Disease. a. Tiffany has both Nystagmus and CGD. Her husband Todd has neither condition. Tiffany's father does not have Nystagmus. Todd's mother has...
