When working out genetics problems in this and succeeding chapters, always assume that members of the P 1 generation are homozygous, unless the information or data you are given require you to do otherwise.
Which of Mendel's postulates are illustrated by the pedigree that you constructed in Problem? List and define these postulates.
Albinism in humans is inherited as a simple recessive trait. For the following families, determine the genotypes of the parents and offspring. (When two alternative genotypes are possible, list both.)(a) Two normal parents have five children, four normal and one albino.
(b) A normal male and an albino female have six children, all normal.
(c) A normal male and an albino female have six children, three normal and three albino.
(d) Construct a pedigree of the families in (b) and (c). Assume that one of the normal children in (b) and one of the albino children in (c) become the parents of eight children. Add these children to the pedigree, predicting their phenotypes (normal or albino).
