<h2>The correct answer is explained below:</h2>

Explanation:

  • According to the given question,
  • For eye color, let the black color be represented by B allele and orange color be represented by b allele. Black is dominant over orange.
  • For skin color, let the green skin be represented by G allele and white skin be represented by g allele. Green is dominant over white.
  • The phenotype of Sam is black eyes and green skin so his genotype can be BBGG or BbGg. It is also said that one of his parents has phenotype orange eyes and white skin. That parent's genotype must be bbgg.
  • Hence, the genotype of Sam must be BbGg.
  • Carole has the phenotype of orange eyes and white skin. Her genotype would bbgg.
  • The gametes produced by Sam are: BG, Bg, bG, bg.
  • The gametes produced by Carole are: bg.
  • Mating them we get,

           BG                    Bg                   bG                       bg

bg      BbGg               Bbgg               bbGg                   bbgg

  (Black/ Green) (Black/ White) (Orange/Green)  (Orange/ White)

  • The genotypes and phenotypes (Eye color/ Skin color) obtained are represented above.
  • The phenotypes (Eye color/ Skin color) obtained are in the following ratio:

(Black/ Green) : (Black/ White) : (Orange/Green) : (Orange/ White) = 1 : 1 : 1 : 1

Fatty acid metabolism disorder is an autosomal recessive disorder. Two unaffected parents have 6 children - all of whom are unaf
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

There are only 2 possible genotypes for the mother, FF and Ff.

Explanation:

Because it is an autosomal inheritance, this case F will be the dominant allele and f the recessive allele, where f produces Fatty acid metabolism disorder. If the mother does not possess the disorder, she must possess at least one dominant allele for that specific gene. However, for the other allele, we cannot assure that it is dominant, since it can be recessive and not express itself either in her or in the offspring, because of the father we also only know his dominant allele.
