7. Normal color vision in the human is due to a dominant gene, C, and is x-linked. The recessive form of the gene, c, causes the

individual to be red-green color blind. A color blind woman marries a man with normal color vision. What are the possible phenotypes of children with respect to vision?

Answer:

50% will be normal and 50% will be carriers

Explanation:

Color blindness is a reduced ability to distinguish between certain colours.

The condition is often inherited. Other causes include certain eye diseases and medication. More men than women are affected.

If such a carrier woman with normal vision (heterozygous for colour blindness) marries a normal man (XY), the following progeny may be expected in the generation: among the daughters, 50% is normal and 50% are carriers for the diseases; among sons, 50% are colour blind and 50% are with normal vision.

Colour blindness is an example of a sex-linked characters.

Sex-linked characters are characters controlled by genes located on the X-chromosome.

The genes for these characters are recessive.

The male has only one gene for a sex-linked character (X^cY).

A female has two genes for sex-linked characters. One in each of the sex chromosomes. If she is homozygous (X^cY^c) for the recessive allele the trait will be expressed.

If she is heterozygous (X^CX^c) she will be normal but carry the abnormal trait involved. She is known as a carrier.

If a colour blind woman marries a man with a normal vision, All their male children will be colour blind(X^cY) because they will inherit if from their mother as the 'Y' chromosomes is empty of the trait.

All their female children will have a normal vision (X^CX^c).

What is the similarity between excretory systems of insects, earthworms and vertebrates?
4vir4ik [10]

Los seres invertebrados y los vertebrados tienen más elementos en común de lo que se pensaba. Un estudio, con participación del Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC), prueba que existe gran similitud entre los sistemas excretores de ambos grupos de animales. Según la investigación, las células encargadas de filtrar la sangre en la formación de orina, alojadas en los riñones de vertebrados, son similares a las que realizan una función análoga en invertebrados.
