Question

Suppose a woman with haplotype L1 and a man with haplotype L2 have a son. The son then marries a woman with haplotype L3. If this couple had one son and one daughter, what would be the respective haplotypes for their son and the daughter?

Explanation:

Haplotype research served to discover the origin of genetic mutations that today manifest as pathologies.

It is very important to know that there are no equal haplotypes in two or more different humans.

They are the allelic constitution of multiple loci for the same chromosome.

Furthermore, haplotypes are very good for studying population genetics.

I leave you a table that will help you for this exercise or many more, where the haplotype system is outlined.
