#9 In humans red-green colorblindness is inherited in an X-linked recessive pattern. Polydactyly (extra fingers and toes) is inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern. A woman with polydactyly (heterozygous) and normal vision marries a man with red-green colorblindness and normal fingers and toes. What phenotypes would you expect to see among their children?

QUESTION 6 Red-Green colorblindness is a X-linked recessive disorder. Huntington’s is an autosomal dominant disorder. Susan’s father is color blind and has Huntington’s disease and is heterozygous for the Huntington’s allele.   Her mother is normal and has no history of colorblindness or Huntington’s in her family. Her brother has developed Huntington’s but is not colorblind. Her husband Greg is healthy and has no incidence of either disorder in his family.   Susan is not colorblind and has not yet be tested...

Red-green color blindness is due to an X-linked recessive allele in humans. A widow’s peak (a hairline that comes to a peak in the middle of the forehead) is due to an autosomal dominant allele. Consider the following family history: A man with a widow’s peak and normal color vision marries a color-blind woman with a straight hairline. The man’s father had a straight hairline, as did both of the woman’s parents. Use the family history to make predictions about...

All of the daughters will have normal vision, and half of the sons will be red-green color blind. C. All of the daughters will have normal vision,...

Colorblindness is an X-linked recessive trait. Let us assume that a colorblind man has a colorblind sister and his mother has normal vision.

What kind of color vision will his sons and his daughters have, and in what ratios, if he marries a woman identical in genotype to his mother?
