Trait A For Heliodors, having four arm-like extensions is dominant over having two. In a family of Heliodors, Hayden has four arm-like extensions like his mother Helen. His father, Harry, and sister, Holly both have two. What are the genotypes of everyone in this family of Heliodors? What is Helen's genotype? Not enough information to determine aa (homozygous recessive) Aa (heterozygous) AA (homozygous dominant)

DAmy Urown Sclence Queen Victoria was the world's most famous carrier of hemophilia. Her son, Leopold, and two carrier daughters, Alice and Beatrice, spread the allele fairly widely through the royal families of Europe, Prussia and Russia. Fortunately, no modern monarchs have inherited the allele. Indicate the probable genotype of each of the people below. Remember, hemophilia is a sex-linked trait and shaded individuals have the disease. Albert Victorla Alice Leopold Beatrice Edward George V George VI Waldamar and Alexis Alfonso and Gonzala Heinreich
. Consider the genotypes of two lines of chickens: thepure-line mottled Honduran is i/i ; D/D ; M/M ; W/W, andthe pure-line leghorn is I/I ; d/d ; m/m ; w/w, whereI = white feathers, i = colored feathersD = duplex comb, d = simplex combM = bearded, m = beardlessW = white skin, w = yellow skinThese four genes assort independently. Starting withthese two pure lines, what is the fastest and mostconvenient way of generating a pure line that has coloredfeathers, has a simplex comb, is beardless, and has yellowskin? Make sure that you showa. the breeding pedigree.b. the genotype of each animal represented.c. how many eggs to hatch in each cross, and why thisnumber.d. why your scheme is the fastest and the mostconvenient
Topic: Gene Locus Height in gryphons is determined by a single locus. You cross a two 9' tall gryphons and get 1/4 10'; 1/2 9' and 1/4 8' tall gryphons. If you across two 7' tall gryphons you get 1/4 8', 1/2 7'; 1/4 6' tall gryphons. pls kindly help to explanation: why In gryphons, alleles of the height lous are semidominant and form an allelic series.

A couple consulted a genetic counselor and they found out the following: Basha: A blood type, blue eye color, normal skin condition, carrier of cystic fibrosis gene, and carrier of hemophilia gene Popoy: B blood type, has brown eye color, normal skin condition, carrier of cystic fibrosis gene and negative to hemophilia. Clues for the table: • Blood Type: The probability that they’ll have an offspring with blood type the same as Popoy is 25% only • Eye Color: The probability that they’ll have an offspring with brown eye color is 75%. • Skin condition: The probability that their offspring will be an albino is 25% What is the probability that the offspring will have/ be: A. a girl with all the same phenotype as her mother. B. 2 girls with neither the blood type of the parents. C. 2 boys with normal skin color and carrier of cystic fibrosis gene; 1 girl with normal skin color and negative to cystic fibrosis. D. 2 girls carrier of both cystic fibrosis gene and hemophilia, a boy † positive…

In individuals affected by cystic fibrosis, salt crystals may appear afterperspiration dries up. In addition, the disease causes respiratory disorderswhich can be both debilitating and lethal. It occurs in individuals homozygousfor the recessive gene. Two normal parents had a daughter with thesymptoms of this disease, and a normal son who marries a normal womanwith an afflicted A test (salt concentration in perspiration of heterozygotes ishigher than normal) disclosed that both are indeed carriers of the gene. If thefirst child born to the mating in (b) was defective, what is the probability thatthe 2nd child would also be defective?Express answer in fraction form

. Among adults with Turner syndrome, it has beenfound that a very high proportion are genetic mosaics.These are of two types: In some individuals, themajority of cells are XO, but a minority of cellsare XX. In other Turner individuals, the majorityof cells are XO, but a minority of cells are XY.Explain how these two patterns of somatic mosaicscould arise.
