What is the probability of becoming male or female?
there are half the chance of a female and half the chance of male so probabilty in both cases is 1/2
What percent of the world is female?
51%
What does a half shaded circle represent on the pedigree chart?
A half-shaded circle on a pedigree chart represents a female who is a carrier of a genetic trait or disorder, but does not express it phenotypically. This indicates that she has one normal allele and one mutated allele for the trait in question. In contrast, a fully shaded circle would represent a female who expresses the trait. Pedigree charts are useful for tracking inheritance patterns across generations.
Does a female lion do 50 percent of the hunting?
No- they do almost ALL the hunting.
What is the probability that a woman who is a carrier of the colorblind gene and a colorblind man will have a daughter who will be colorblind?
the colorblindness is usually not activited in a female body but is usually seen in male
A female who is a carrier of Fabry's disease has what chance of having a daughter who is a carrier?
The mother has a 50% chance of passing the defective recessive gene to her daughters who will be carries of the disorder (like their mother).
Why can a female be a carrier of a sex linked genetic disorder?
When a female is heterozygous i.e. she possess one allele of disease , she is called carrier .
Who is a person that is a carrier for a sex-linked recessive disorder?
Usually female.
What is true of sex linked alleles'?
A female with one copy of the allele will be a carrier, but not have the disorder.
What is a carrier for hemophilia?
A carrier for hemophilia is a female who carries the genetic mutation for hemophilia on one of her X chromosomes, but does not exhibit symptoms of the condition herself. Carriers can pass on the gene mutation to their children, resulting in hemophilia in male offspring. Testing can confirm carrier status.
What percent chance did you and yoyr partner have of producing male or female offspring?
50/50 chance
What kind of gene pair is found in the female carrier of a sex linked disorder?
In the female carrier of a sex-linked disorder, there would typically be one normal allele and one mutated allele for the gene associated with the disorder on the X chromosome. This is because females have two X chromosomes, and one copy of the X chromosome with the mutated allele can be masked by the normal allele on the other X chromosome.
How many children would have hemophilia if the female was a carrier of hemophilia and male was normal?
Hemophilia is passed down from mother to son. It is extremely rare for a woman to have hemophilia. It is necessary, though, for a woman to be a carrier of the disorder for her son to acquire this disorder. Females have two X chromosomes whereas males only have one. When a boy is born, he takes one X chromosome from his mother and one Y chromosome from his father. Therefore, he can only get hemophilia through his mother. Example One: Mother(Carrier)+Father(Non-Affected)=50% chance of their son acquiring the disorder and 50% chance of their daughter being a carrier. Example Two: Mother(Non-Affected)+Father(Hemophiliac)=All sons will be non-affected and all daughters will be carriers.
If a female carrier for hemophilia mates with a healthy male who doesn't have hemophilia what are the expected genotypes and phenotypes of their children?
Haemophilia is a recessive, X-based disorder. The woman in your question is a carrier, meaning she has the defective gene, but isn't bothered by it. Therefor, the woman is of the type 'Xx'. The man is of the type 'XY', not carrying the defective gene. Their children can then be: XX, xX, XY, xY. This means that their daughters won't be affected by it, but might carry it, and their sons either not carry it at all, or carry it and be haemophilic.
Does hemophilia skip a generation?
Haemophilia is a sex-linked recessive disorder - which means it can skip a generation, but only if it is carried in the female line.A female can be a carrier of haemophilia, but a male cannot. This is because males only have one X chromosome, so if they have a defective X they will have the disorder. If a father has haemophilia, all of his daughters will also have haemophilia.
Can an eevee lay a female egg in Pokemon diamond?
Yes but there is only a 12.5 percent chance of it happening
What is a X linked carrier homozygous?
An X linked carrier is one who carries a mutation in a gene found on the X sex chromosome. A carrier of the trait doesn't display phenotypic symptoms of the disease or mutation but can transfer the mutation in that gene to their offspring (ex: the carrier of a premutation that when transferred to the offspring via the X chromosome will cause the full mutation associated with that gene). A person could be a homozygous carrier if for instance, she were female (two X chromosomes) and carried the premutation associated with the disease. Some diseases need both alleles of the gene to be mutated. If only one allele is mutated (heterozygote) that person may be a carrier for that mutation and can thus pass on that mutation to their children.
