Heredity assignment: must show punnet square, and provide short explanation of genotype and phenotype percentages.
1 answer:
25% of the offspring (yellow) will have a XHXH genotype, they will be women expressing a healthy phenotype.
Other 25% of the offspring (green) will have a XHXh genotype, they are carriers of the hemophilian gene but express a healthy phenotype.
Other 25% of the offspring (orange) will be men with a XHY genotype, they won't be carriers so they will express a healthy phenotype.
The last 25% of the offspring (blue) will be men with a XhY genotype, they will express a phenotype of the hemophilia.
This means 25% of the of the offspring will be carriers and the 25% will be hemophiliacs.
